Rather than the same config.ini file, read in with "read()" rather than
"include", and Eu
executes calls to procedures and functions in the read sequence rather then the 
include. So the file can be re-read if changed, without shutting the program
down so it
can re-include the file... your approach, no personal offence intended, sounds
like
windoze: if you change something, you must reboot. Arrrgggg. 

Ok.

But it's moot anyhow, since Robert has nixed it.

Kat,
<still pleading> it's *very* useful in Ai languages, and i use it in critical
learning points
in mirc. It would be the easiest way in the world to do totally custom and
unforseen
spreadsheets.
