It seems to > be missing more stuff that it used to lately. This one is difficult. The rules up to now have been consistent spacing is required on both sides of mathematics operators. I personally like spaces always, but we do tend to use them without spaces too where the binding is effectivly part of the value -- the classic case is something like: pfn << MAX_ORDER-1 In allowing that sort of thing, we implictly allow the one you note above. We have tried to be overly annoying on these things, and so the check is consistancy, spaces both or neither. We could be stricter. -apw
