Why out? See please: A--------------------B A is start point of the loop's parameter. B is finish point of the loop's parameter. Parameter goes "from the A point to the B point". Is "out A to B" good in English for the line above ??? [snip] > Then again, the 'for' loop takes up two less > bytes per loop > instance; what do you have to say about that? Any key word inside EU interpreter is just 1 byte. In Russian, "FROM" = "OT" or "IZ", "OUT" = "IZ", but "FOR" = "DLYA" Regards, Igor Kachan kinz at peterlink.ru
