One thing I've done in the (as yet unreleased) next version of Little Smalltalk is to put the collection hierarchy as a subclass of Magnitude. Set relations become subsets Set(a b) < Set (a b c) < Set (a b c d) Arrays (and hence strings) have lexical orderings 'abc' between: 'ab' and: 'abcd' yields true and other nice things come for free with this change. --tim budd budd@cs.orst.edu
