Hey! If it's "Beat Up On Roy" day, could we celebrate by pointing to some specific obfuscated examples? :-) I'm not using GCC4.3 yet, so I'm not going to try to guess what redundant parentheses would be necessary to make that compiler happy, but if I've been writing code that makes humans unhappy then I'd like to at least get some (more) explanatory comments in there. If there's anything that's confusing you now, it'll probably be confusing me a year from now when I reread the same source after having forgotten the process of writing it. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
