Right on. Everything should fit in 80 columns with the line number in the first 8 spaces. All variables should be typed by their first letter. Program flow should be direct, by jumping to a line number, or calculated. Even better, eliminate the whole need for whitespace and simply write the value that needs to be in each bit next to the last bit. You don't need whitespace to toggle code into memory. :-) -- Ray Parks [EMAIL PROTECTED] IDART Project Lead Voice:505-844-4024 IORTA Department Mobile:505-238-9359 http://www.sandia.gov/scada Fax:505-844-9641 http://www.sandia.gov/idart Pager:800-690-5288 ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
