Re: Re: Idea

there are separate issues here, one is packages, one is importing the symbol space from a package, and one is implicitly including files based on an import statement lik you do below. Use and import in Zend are broken in this respect, I'm not sure if A&Z really understood the semantics I was after. But I'll give it one more shot. We probably won't need a raising of hands (one way or the other). - Stig On Thu, 12 Jul 2001, Alex Black wrote: > > I almost had Zeev and Andi going for this last year.
