The more I read these two RFCs (and the previous ones about similar features), the more I think we really need to find a compromise about named arguments. Many of the problems (remotely or closely related) would be solved too. About the syntax used in these RFCs, I really have to try out the patch and see if it feels natural, but can't say it while reading the RFCs... :) Cheers, -- Pierre @pierrejoye | http://www.libgd.org
