If you have a taste for unmaintainable code to emulate goto, sure, goto isn't something you want then. But I sure as hell don't want to maintain even my own code. See me earlier reply to Stanislav, I just proved my point on IRC just after sending the mail.. Missed a few recursive function calls and several loops. And I didn't even try to understand all logic, just get the relevant parts out of the code. Unmaintainable is the keyword. Magnus Määttä -- <Thoth_> Yeah, well that's why it's numbered 2.3.1... it's for those of us who miss NT-like uptimes
