But that is my point. With Python, the language itself takes care of the platform differences, so the same Python code will run on different platforms. I realize that, at a lower level, everything is done is C. But, from the developers point of view: developing code in C requires more attention to platform specifics, than does developing code in Python. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
