I would strongly recommend you examine what part of your practice is leading you to write so much code with invalid syntax, without immediately testing and fixing it. Eliminate that part of the process — possibly with test-driven development. -- \ "Holy unrefillable prescriptions, Batman!" -- Robin | `\ | _o__) | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
