For the standard library, I agree. There are enough variants that are needed/desired in different contexts, and there isn't a single clear winner. Nor is there any compelling reason to have a winner. I'm generally in favor of enums (or whatever you want to call them), and I'm in favor of importing support for the flavor you need, or just defining constants in whatever way makes sense for your library or application. I don't see any problems that aren't solved by that. -Fred -- Fred L.
