It depends on the code, though. If the transformation from definition to code is very simple I'll just do it on the fly on screen. Code revision I do via the time-honored approach of marked up listings. Until we have better tools for annotating and manipulating, paper is still much easier to edit. -- scott preece gould/csd - urbana ihnp4!uiucdcs!ccvaxa!preece
