But I have the feeling that in English the use of | 'parenthesis' or 'parentheses' is usually limited to only the ( and ). | If this is true, } cannot be 'a case of' parenthesis. That's true: I was a bad worker on this. I agree to Brian's suggestion. regards, -- SugHimsi (SUGIHARA Hiroshi) manamist@white.diamond.ne.jp
