KG> Would anyone be interested in such a resource? I think this is a great idea! For my own help, I keep a few txt files to hand which essentially document all the basics of each language I find myself having to go between, but it would be great to have somewhere to ask quick cross-language questions from one coder to another. Perhaps advertising the list with a focus on director <-> flash (note the arrow pointing *both* ways!) might be useful initially with a mention that other languages are welcome too...? - Ben _______________________ duck_at_robotduck.com www.robotduck.com [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [email protected] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
