But we shouldn't starting counting now. What is desirable? That's the importand question. We could just as well use a parameter-like interface. I like the accessor + setter approach, I find it somehow elegant and it allows the use of the modification-forms from miscmacros. It also reduces namespace clutter. But that's just my opinion and my personal preference. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-hackers
