Phillip Gawlowski [2011-10-14 23:11]: > The downside to this approach is that you use "true" to say > something is "false". well, i guess that depends on your point of view ;) you seem to read it as "argument given? => false"; i read it as "apply default case? => true". which is why i always name that variable 'default' to begin with.
