Thanks, Charles. I'll update and give it a shot.

If I wanted to take a stab at making "in" work the way I want, would I look at 'class InExpr' in 'Source/BinaryOpExpr.cobra' and/or 'Source/Cobra.Lang/Native.cs'?

IIRC correctly, InExpr is going to use the .NET Contains() method of the list which in turn is not going to use the strongly typed .equals.

Two approaches I can think to fixing this are modifying InExpr as you've indicated here, or implementing a "cue equals" that produces the Object.equals method as a side effect.

Yesterday, I finally got a chance to test the latest changes in regards to equality testing and everything seems to be working quite nicely. After reading some docs on MSDN I also found that as long as my class implements the IEquatable<of T> interface, then the "in" operator will call the strongly typed equals as expected. Thanks again, Charles! :D
