While trying to break your code with a len() > 1 string I noted that strings don't feature an __iter__ attribute. Therefore obj.__iter__() is not equivalent to iter(obj) for strings. Do you (plural) know whether this is a CPython implementation accident or can be relied upon? Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
