I disagree. The target is state, not an individual item that needs to be acted on. Having it as a single variable means that multiple changes are collapsed automatically, and that the the setting survives module reload. It's like a volume control, it doesn't send messages when you turn it, it just sets a value. (maybe a thermostat knob is a better analogy, with the driver being the circuitry around the knob that tries to control the temperature to match the setting) I believe state-like controls will be useful for other settings, like ethernet link state. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
