Yes, that's how C's and C++'s enums work, unless an override is given (which I know you can do in C++ for sure). Otherwise, they are just numbers starting at 0. The size of the intergers (byte, 2 bytes, 4 bytes, etc..) is implemenation defined I believe, but an int normally works. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
