The main reason against deep copy is efficiency. In a typical application with huge data structures, you will want to change parts of it often. If you copy the whole structure each time, you need lots of computing time and processing power. For a demonstration - as I said - I have none ;) Cheers, - Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
