By this measure, nearly all of the code available to the WindowsNT DDK is "easier to understand and modify" as well as allow[ing] for greater flexibility". My only point here is that both numbers and strings are identifiers, and it is not always obvious but it *is* context (observer context) sensitive as which is, in fact, easier to use or manipulate or remember. -matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
