I agree that these are general enough to belong in the utility set rather than the BIB-2 set. However, I do not understand why you wish to blur the distinction between the structure (set of words) and its interpretation (any, all, adjacent). That seems like bad Computer Science to me. _/|_ _______________________________________________________________ /o ) \/ Mike Taylor <mike@miketaylor.org.uk> www.miketaylor.org.uk )_v__/\ "Derry and Toms: You are a large green reptile with a series of soft yellow underbellies running down your spine ..." -- Monty Python.
