I tend to be like using significant whitespace as long as I can use delimiters where I need to. What is your general opinion on the use of significant whitespace in a langauge. Two langauges that take somewhat different approches to this are haskell and python. haskell takes a layout based approach, basically everything at the same level of indentation is in the same block. I believe it also allows only spaces. It also allows for standard dilimiters where needed. Python uses indentation as well, though it allows both spaces and tabs to serve. ------------------------ Yahoo!
