Hmm, I didn't realize people relied on that behavior. It's possible to change it back to the old one, but still implement a check that if the element is not found the pointer is reset to the beginning of the array, but I guess I'd like to hear more opinions about this before doing any changes. -Andrei * On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key. *
