PyMite will get a closer look from me eventually but I found that Lua will fit my immediate needs quite nicely. Thanks for the suggestion. FYI.. I wanted a simple version of Python to run on an ancient DEC Alpha box. I got VMS Python 2.5 up and running but it is too slow to use. It takes *minutes* to get the interpreter prompt after typing 'python'! Lua, on the other hand, compiled without changes (used the ANSI switch) and runs nicely. I'm always up for learning a new language anyway. Ron -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
