Maybe we should be thinking of this differently. What on the surface appears to be many varieties of one use case, screaming out for TOOWTDI+options is really (at least) two use cases urging us to different solutions appropriate for the problem. I have no qualms with adding writeln() or writefmt() or whatever -- those seem like useful additions I'm sure I'd use. But I don't think that therefore (or under the principles of TOOWTDI or cleanliness) demands the removal of print. -Barry -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
