The NAMES are predefined, eg $1, $', etc What I meant is that it's not a meaningful distinction. Since all variable should be declared, it's like saying "electronic television". Until they use laser circuitry for TVs, there's no such thing as electronic televisions. There are just televisions.	[reply]
