I find C++ FAR superior to Eiffel for acedemic work. This is because C++ is at every acedemic site I've been to, and Eiffel is nowhere to be seen. Does Eiffel cost big $$$ or something? There must be some difference in distribution methods, because Eiffel sounds really ideal for research programming, but is absent. pete shirley
