Only use       goto if there is no (easy or even not-so-easy) way to avoid it. There       may be cases where not using goto makes the code more complicated or       slower but these cases are very rare. So think twice if you really need       it. If you've decided that you really need it, use a label that speaks       for itself (i.e. don't use a plain number!) and document why you had to       use goto.              - Wolf              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
