Takes a Wom.bat to get the zoo going, huh? Anyhow, OPTIONAL spaces only don't belong because the scanner wasn't written with that in mind. In all respect, its superfluous to you, but to me, it means something ;) For the same reasons, too, that { $var } et al. are supported. Its not about teaching monkeys how to type, its about reading what the monkey wrote--perhaps ten months later after the original monkey has flown the coup (as monkeys are apt to do) and a new monkey is trying to figure out where the bannanas are kept. Seriously, if it doesn't break anything, then I don't see why you should reject it out of hand. Monkeys need space, too. xo boots __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
