This is true - and I think it will only fail if the "entry" point in the pasted code is "further to the right" than where it has to fit in to the original code - i.e. if you "run out of space" to the left. - but in that case you really are hacking, and you are in urgent need of some slashing... - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
