Same in Perl? I have not used Gettext in Perl, but I'd truly hope not considering the overwhelming usage of $_. Can you imagine _ and $_? That's not what I'd call increased readability. Regards, Cristopher Daniluk President CEO email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] direct: 330/530-2373 Digital Services

Heh, touche on my poor terminology. What I mean is it has no business being a function brought to the table by PHP. Even if we moved it to PEAR in a GetText module I'd be a happier guy. What good are ignored standards? Regards, Cristopher Daniluk President CEO email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] direct

At least can we create a reference? User wants to know what the hell _ is, he goes to www.php.net/_ and gets an answer - of course that may be a problem since _ is such a goofy url, most people will assume it doesn't work. Another reason _ is bad! :) Regards, Cristopher Daniluk President CEO
