From: christopher.f.clark@compiler-resources.com I'm sorry for bringing more heat than light to this group. Counted strings are important for protocols. Not everything we write a lexer for is human written. Counted strings are a good way of transmitting binary data. This is just one way computers are different than humans.... -- ****************************************************************************** Chris Clark email: christopher.f.clark@compiler-resources.com Compiler Resources, Inc.
