GOTOs are not understable. Identifiers in foreign languages are perfectly understable. Just not to you. For coding problems better solutions (approaches) exist than using GOTOs (procedural programming, modules). For identifier naming problems it's not a better approach to stick to English or ASCII. It's just a different approach. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
