I proposed to have both variables local scope, to reduce the size of function-scope variables. Their number tends to grow in probe() a lot, so when a variable can be localized more, it makes the code easier to understand. No need to figure out who/where/when uses the variable. Local scope makes it much easier. Best regards, Krzysztof
