A while back, on TSO-REXX, I advocated labelling END statements to take advantage of the processor's enforcing that they match the DOs, and complained that the processor ignores some mismatches. A steadfast partisan said that doesn't matter; disciplined use of indention provides equivalent function. I said that would be true only if the processor enforced the indention conventions. Perhaps Python provides the needed discipline. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
