He means that text won't work with 6.10 *if* it's changed to use the conversion routines that only exist in 6.12+ as you seem to be demanding.

Exactly. But it is probably possible to make version of text which with 6.10 uses some copy of the routines and with 6.12 uses the routines in base.

I highly doubt that you can simply copy/paste the IO stuff from 6.12+ to use with 6.10, unless you were willing to copy a _lot_ of code. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
