Thanks everyone for responding. It doesn't look like python has it. I would definitely miss it. As Steve said, the nice thing about __END__ is that things below __END__ do not have to have legit syntax. That let me focus on the lines of code I am debugging and do not have to worry about some bad syntax down the line. This feature is especially handy if I am, saying, replacing modoules or changing data structures. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
