Sorry to steal the thread! This is only related to your signature: > "if programmers were paid to remove code instead of adding it, > software would be much better" -- unknown I just did that last week. Around 250 useless lines removed from a 1000 lines module. I think the original coder didn't read the tutorial past the dictionary examples: *all* functions returned a dictionary or list of dictionaries! Of course using different names for the same thing here and there, ugh... I just throw in a few classes and containers, removed all the nonsensical packing/unpacking of data going back and forth, for a net decrease of 25% in size (and a great increase in robustness, maintainability, etc). If I were paid for the number of lines *written* that would not be a great deal :) -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
