How about this (which in fact is borrowed from Wirths Oberon-2): A variable (function) gets exported if its name is immediately followed by an '*' or some other char, else it is not. _______________________________________________________________________________ malte@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de send mail reply to: Universitaet Bielefeld, Technische Fakultaet z.
