Don,
Arrgh. I disbelieved your statement, so I went and stuffed the right
bits into a test harness (Well, actually, I went away and goofed off
on a sailboat for a week and THEN stuffed it into a harness <g>).
Don is correct and I'm an ass for expecting the paren-wrapper to do
what I wanted rather than testing it first.
Thanks,
Reto
