The lo:hi format really makes your brain hurt when dealing with numeric fields that span the boundary. The Geode has many such fields. If it wouldn't be too difficult, it would also be nice to permit embedded commas or dots in the number, because counting digits in a 64-bit number is very difficult without the help of punctuation. > Jordan > > _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@laptop.org http://mailman.laptop.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
