Re: Just for fun:

Thanks Mathew, Jason and Joseph for the reply. I never thought that having a large function could be a bad thing. I'll keep your tips in mind when writing functions from now on. Fortunatly, the function I was refering to that was 100 lines is a one time use function. It's only used to setup the backend for my script, and after that it's never called during normal use. (the user would have to delete the configuration file in order for the function to be called again.) Theoreticly, I could take out a lot of "check and balance" type of code, and get it done in half the lines, but realisticly that wouldn't be too good for the overall setup of the script, since it is defining the core of the application.
