Honestly, is a backslash going to kill you?
Aye, given the cost-benefit ratio on this one, I'll be rather surprised if anyone ever actually fixes it. I just wanted to be clear that I'm not *philosophically* opposed to fixing it (since I think Barry's proposed behaviour makes more sense from a user perspective), I'm just fairly sure it's likely to be hard to fix without making the Grammar harder to maintain, which *would* be a difficult sell for something that's a relatively trivial wart :) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
