But if you are going to change existing code, it is important to add tests which you show to work before you apply your changes. Example: the tests I did last week on how properties and $ signs are expanded in strings. There are lots of implicit tests for this, but till then nothing explicit. NB, adding tests to existing code without making any code changes is welcome too. :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
