Since the commercial '@' sign is not otherwise used in C (because of it's former as a line kill char in Version X Unix?), maybe it would be a better choice. Because this ability is a new ability, maybe its inclusion warrants a new operator. David Linn LINNDR%VUENGVAX.BITNET@WISCVM.WISC.EDU | Internet ...!psuvax1!vuengvax.bitnet!linndr | UUCP
