I'll second that. I took a crossword engine that I wrote a while back, which used a sprite for every letter in the grid (max grid, 22x22), and rewrote it with IL. Instead of a 500 sprite channel movie, I now have a 15 channel movie. Instead of 484 text members, I have one (simply for grabbing text images). And it looks *much* nicer on screen. The code is a tad more complex, but simple enough once you start to think in IL terms. -Kurt [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]).
