    In a former employment, I labored for a couple of years over an app in which the average length of routines was roughly 350 lines. Refactoring was not permitted.

    Refactoring not permitted?  Huh?

    I currently am refactoring a 10k+ line unit too that hopefully will break down into some 20 units.  Not counting the standard units, the interface uses section includes over 40 units. I need a much bigger screen :P

    In that former employment. It was clear that the #1 design pattern in the app had been copy and paste.

    Simon Stuart  LOL -- haven't found that yet.  ;-)

    And this thing, I should add, is really well named, at least.

    Figuring out /what/ it does is easy: Everything. It's the details that stink.

    And it uses nested With's and lots of GOTOs.

    I prefer to have TThing objects.
