Jafar,
I wrote that late. More often I use alternation. I've wanted to write it that
way but I'm not sure binding variables into a list works.
every a | b | c := table() # for instance
It's also limited by the side effects you mentioned. I have to be picky about
the procedures I call. Normally they aren't generators.
David
