Hi Romano,
On Thursday, February 26, 2004, 6:56:08 PM, you wrote:

Do you think you would use APPLY that way? I wouldn't. I would use
it this way, instead:
my-find: func [
series value
/part range /only /case /any
/with wild /skip size /match
/tail /last /reverse
] [
; something useful ...
apply :find [
series value part range only case any
with wild skip size match tail last reverse
]
; something useful ...
]
Now, if you consider that that block can be constructed
automatically, you see that is not so much of a problem.
Also, if you have a native APPLY like the one I described, you
could write a mezzanine function like the one you described;
however, with your APPLY, you'd have trouble writing a function
like the above...
Regards,
Gabriele.
