"|| die" If this is the case, I'd say "|| die" is the more intuitive. Devs who forget will not appreciate --strict, because it doesn't make much of a difference if they had to add --strict or append "|| die". do* et al, should either always die, or be left as they are. In fact, a "--relaxed" option to those functions makes more sense. -- *> Georgi Georgiev *> I have a map of the United States. It's *> <* chutz@gg3.net <* actual size.
