Hi Lynn,
On Tuesday, 8 July 1997 at 19:25:28, Lynn Weinfurther confused
me talking about: Visual basic vs. Delphi to Simon Huggins
 RT>> delightfully clear! Not for Delphi: all is ended with
 RT>> the same END;
 SH>> Ermmm, isn't that easier????!!
 SH>> Instead of having to know what to put afterwards, you
 SH>> just always put an end.
 LW> Easier to write, maybe. But not easier to read. When I
 LW> have several begin-end items nested I usually put a comment
 LW> after the end to say end what. ie)
 LW>         if blah then
 LW>                 begin
 LW>                 with suchNsuch do
 LW>                         begin
 LW>                         ...
 LW>                         end; {with}
 LW>                 end; {if}
Yep that's good practice, but if you tab everything out then you can follow
it. But you are right it is a good idea to try not to confuse yourself
with your own code ;)
bfn,
si.
