Re: LR not turning *ON??

Rob,

I agree with that. What I don't like about 'C-style' programming is that 
the error handling tends to attract focus more than the actual processing.

E.g.:

do_something();
if (anything_wrong);
        handle errors;
endif;

gives more focus to do_something than:

if (!do_something())
        {
        handle errors;
        }

But maybe that's just an RPG programmer's way of looking at it (although 
I programmed in C before I even knew about RPG).
