They're supposed to be quite dumb, so that anyone could understand them with no more than 5 minutes of learning if he's not a programmer guy, and with no learning at all if he is. If they become powerful, it almost immediately means they become complex, which defeats their very purpose. Zeev On Mon, 20 Mar 2000, Andrei Zmievski wrote: > I did. A long time ago.
