Is there some mistake in this post? I find that there *is* an article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctest but that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DocTest doesn't refer to an extant article. Since you claim to be exercising your pedantry, I wonder why I get the results I do. Since we *are* being pedantic, by the way, surely the name is actually "doctest", not "Doctest". regards Steve -- Steve Holden +1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://del.icio.us/steve.holden ------------------ Asciimercial --------------------- Get on the web: Blog, lens and tag your way to fame!! holdenweb.blogspot.com squidoo.com/pythonology tagged items: del.icio.us/steve.holden/python All these services currently offer free registration! -------------- Thank You for Reading ---------------- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
