If I check the doc and see: Pack: Net -> NNTP, Ping, IPv6 I would see in a moment that for using the ping class I should put "require 'Net/Ping.php'". In the other hand if see: Pack: net -> nntp, ping, ipv6 I would need to check every file name before can use it. You said: "Any opinions on this?" and I give my opinion. Is "well-thought-out" for _me_ :-) Tomas V.V.Cox
