not exactly sure what "this application" means here. the namespace system as is does provide gobs of reusability. vcool! where it would break down for me is when dealing with large amounts of parameter data. for instance, in arp!0 i use techniques similar to my example above (minus the lovely functions!) to iterate through similar but distinct parameter arrays, and also to load blocks of variant parameters en mass. the ability to pass references to sizeable chunks of structured data in & out of functions would be wonderfully useful imo. is this what you were asking for Justin?

enjoy! /dan
