In "Thou shalt have my best gown to make thee a pair...", we are given a reason to use the option syntax vs. the pair constructing fat comma C<< => >>: "...we're guaranteed that the key of the resulting pair is a string, that the string [...] contains a valid identifier, and that the compiler can check the validity before the program starts."
(Do we need both "...a valid..." and "...check the validity..."?) We aren't told what validity checking the compiler is doing. I figure its looking for some in-scope declaration of that identifier, but what would such a declaration look like? Where exactly does the set of valid option identifiers *for C<form>* come from, and are they tied *to C<form>*, or floating in a global space, free to collide with other (option key) identifier declarations? It seems like there's more to this story... Regards, -- Gregor -- Gregor Purdy [EMAIL PROTECTED] Focus Research, Inc. http://www.focusresearch.com/
