Hi, Something to think about...in theory, you never have to make a carriage return in C ++, just keep typing. You're code would turn to mush, but it'd be interesting to see if someone could make senseof it. Best Regards, Hayden

Hi Lora, That's a good point. Actually, the BGT script language is close enough to C++ that someone learning it will get a fairly good introduction to C-Style languages in the process. They won't learn everything about C++ specifically, but should they ever want to try C++ in the future they will have some fundimentals in place. For that reason sticking with C++ rules such as terminating statements with semi-colons is a good thing. On 3/24/10, Loravara <lorav...@comcast.net> wrote: > Oh, I say leave the semicolons in.
