   Really? People actually do that?

St=C3=A9phane, if you quote me, please don't erase the smilies, I use
them rarely enough!

The above was a joke, but I was really surprised to see that=20

   for (+) =3D 1 to 5 do Printf.printf "%d\n" ((+) * 2) done

actually works. I still wonder, if there is a useful application
for this "feature".

Bye,
