By the way, note that if I say (on Vista) python printargs.py booga -a wooga
I get the desired output: > there are 4 args > arg: printargs.py > arg: booga > arg: -a > arg: wooga So the quesiton still stands, what's up with that? Thanks, --JMike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
