Hmm?? Cool Pearl reminds me of Stella & Adda? A.should you view the print files from the custom geom for possible variable/i.e.ect... calls that my have not been know{dictionaried} by the programmer?? B. This would then open a new command string that would handle this described custom geom?wouldn't it?? good luck in the future.. Question; what is the combination ratio/file size# of lines between Python & Pearl???Like if you wrote identical programs.But,one was in Python & the other in Pearl.. Hey! I would forget my kids if they didn't think that I was a tree?
