Not all that useful, IMHO. Some of it just involves aliasing, most of the other stuff is for handling stacks and similar data structure. The main problem here is that making the beginning of the series the top of the stack is a Bad Idea, because it makes push/pop O(n) (except for list!). There is also the problem that a lot of useful, short words would be reserved for something that provides little added functionality. We usually like to reserve such words for more "fundamental" features. -- Holger Kruse [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes.
