I would recommend trying the Event module which features channels and events, which in turn are an abstraction which allows to build more complex events from simpler ones before "synchronizing" on the resulting event. For example, "receive a" is the event that, when you synchronize to it, waits for a value to be sent on channel "a", and returns the value, and "choose [receive a,receive b]" is the event that, when you synchronize to it, waits for a value to be sent on either "a" or "b" and returns the value - in this case a and b must have the same value type. http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/libref/Event.html Bye Vincenzo -- Please note that I do not read the e-mail address used in the from field but I read vincenzo_ml at yahoo dot it Attenzione: non leggo l'indirizzo di posta usato nel campo from, ma leggo vincenzo_ml at yahoo dot it
