You have an excellent memory. My recollection was only of our | discussion about the use of 'is' in the interpreter. But it seems that | 'is' is used extensively in Spad for domain equality.

At the moment, it is not used for pattern matching in Spad. But, that may change. | Are you thinking about how this could/should related to equality in Domain? Yes.
