Terry: "interpreted" is not a synonym for "scripting language". If it were then C, BASIC, PL1, PASCAL, and probably COBOL would be called scripting languages, since they all run or have been interpreted. But lets not debate this further on hacker. Besides, I don't consider *this* issue debatable. Sorry. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Withrow, R.W.
