Someone wrote: >sequence of sequence of integer s I doubt i would use that exact line anywhere, but i would DEFINATELY use this: sequence of char which would limit ANY element in this sequence to a whole number between 0 and 255, or hex #00 to #FF. I'd welcome this in a heartbeat, because from then on i'd be able to store text in single bytes with the same ease that i store anything else (usually) when using Euphoria. Presently, for every character stored there are four bytes used. On the other hand, if it was going to slow storing and retrieving down too much i would not like this I think as a min i would look for not less then 0.5 times the speed it is now, although it really is app dependent. Take care, Al And, good luck with your Euphoria programming! My bumper sticker: "I brake for LED's"
