 BL>> Everyone sneers at goto, but pointers are a hundred times worse

 BL>> for making a program inscrutable, and they have the added

 BL>> problem of making it mostly unpredictable if you get just one

 BL>> thing wrong, even a typing error... and usually, the first

 BL>> warning you get is when the bloody thing locks up.



 PE>> Run it under the debugger (td). That way you can ctrl-break out

 PE>> of it and find the problem etc. BFN. Paul.



 BL>   Yair... that's what I do, alright. And I get totally 

 BL> inscrutable advice.
