Hmm, I think that variadic <= would introduce surprise unless we also changed [expr {$a <= $b <= $c}] to have Scheme-like semantics. Which, given the current turmoil, is a place I don't want to go *yet.* We can make the comparison operators nonassociative now and variadic later. -- 73 de ke9tv/2, Kevin KENNY GE Corporate Research & Development ke...@cr...
