I don't think you *can* make them distinct. Sure, you could introduce "change" object which refers to a couple of source trees and a destination tree, and then create a "history" object which links previous history and a change, but what's the point? What can you do with such a thing that you cannot do now, just as easily, besides slow down your programs with an unnecessary level of indirection? -- Matthias Urlichs | {M:U} IT Design @ m-u-it.de | smurf@smurf.noris.de Disclaimer: The quote was selected randomly.
