Actually, you are wrong. Error messages, *especially* usage messages, are directly related to the functionality, and do *not* contain enough creativity to pass the abstraction/filtration/comparison tests. IMHO, enough evidence was presented that sustains Sam's and Branden's version that no code was ever copied. -- HTH, Massa -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
