Chris

I think your words could benefit from being more explicit. I
am probably not the only person who thinks:

"local variables to which the value of the corresponding actual
parameter is assigned"
implies a copy, or that if you just pass the address of an array to a
procedure,
to implement IN, that the array being read IS still accessable
"from outside that procedure".


I suspect that I am observing "pissing in the wind", but I wish you
luck.
Is there room on your compiler upgrade list for 'Full IEEE arithmetic
support'. It
need not be mentioned in the Language report, just done.

Cheers
