And that's what any concious humain will do in such situation. What I ment is that, sometimes, you have to work in real time and have no time to code->test->debug->... cycle. For example when monitoring or forging some IP packets (you can fake a "fantom" Sun workstation in your home network like that ;) and need a realtime custom check function or when you're using your computer as a "desk scientific calculator" you'd like to have a flexible, powerfull and light-weight-syntax interpretted programming language. That language would be with no doubt Python! But, why not, with lighter syntax. Adiaux! Samir -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
