There are far better ways to optimize that space back if you _really_ need it. And RAM is cheap these days, so you probably don't need it. Without giving it any thought, it seems that storing all your strings back-to-back in one block of memory, then addressing each string as an offset from the start of that block would be far, far better, and even portable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
