This is the case with Prolog, for example: you declare an operator with its relative precedence and type (prefix/postfix/infix), and then you can use this operator in the program. -- Saumya Debray SUNY at Stony Brook uucp: {allegra, hocsd, philabs, ogcvax} !sbcs!debray arpa: debray%suny-sb.csnet@csnet-relay.arpa CSNet: debray@sbcs.csnet
