I can see, from reading the source, what's "guaranteed" by a particular lazy structure and/or function. But that's just a statement about the current implementation, which might change in a future version of the language/library. Are these guarantees stated anywhere, or is my only recourse reading the source and/or experimenting with examples? -- paul.butcher->msgCount++ Snetterton, Castle Combe, Cadwell Park...
