Part of the design of pragmas is that, because they're message sends, they have implementations. Those implementations can document what the pragma does. The browser should include pragma selectors when doing "implementors..." so one can easily find the implementation of a pragma. Also senders... should answer methods with pragmas with the selector being looked for. If both of these are true then pragmas are much easier to explore and understand. HTH, Eliot
