I like it, it looks good, and I'm having very scary thoughts about Java and Parrot. Thoughts like: "How about we build Java method call shims so Java cna call Parrot and vice versa?" or "How about we emulate the JNI interface and use native libs built for Java?" And, of course, I'm having similar thoughts about .NET now... Being able to do this would give us a pretty significant leg up in terms of library code, if it works. -- Dan --------------------------------------"it's like this"------------------- Dan Sugalski even samurai [EMAIL PROTECTED] have teddy bears and even teddy bears get drunk
