Except for the elitist nonsense, and beside the point, really: If people think such a hypothetical tool would be useful and want to write and use such a thing, they should go ahead and do so. If you think this is nonsense, it's not for you, which is fine. It's certainly not for me. But other than stating the reasons why I think this is not practical and helpful in the real world, why should I try to convice others to /not/ write duch a thing? Because "some things should not be easy"? cheers, -peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
