     A fine line at times.

     In the client billing system that I wrote and maintain, I have a
lot of what most would call cut-and-paste code.  They are very short
segments.  In some cases, calling a properly parameterised subroutine
would take more code than the section of code that would be replaced.

     The segments are obvious (well, so far) and execute in a larger
context (which is why setting up calls for equivalent subroutine
functionality would bloat the code).

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
