Any comments? I think it's a great idea. Being able to assume that everyone would have track_vars on would make it much, much easier to write safe _and_ portable code. Of course, now it's just possible to force them to turn it on, but for things like PEAR to succeed, having things work out-of-the-box is going to be crucial. -chuck -- Charles Hagenbuch, <chuck@horde.org> -- To understand recursion, one must first understand recursion.
