When I said "closures are used ...", I wasn't trying to be preachy about how I think callbacks should be implemented, just explaining the use (and usefulness) of *closures*. I'm not saying closures are the only method of implementing stateful callbacks, nor that they're the best method around in all circumstances. > What is your point here? I was simply responding to a subthread that only evaluated closures as a SICP-style OOP implementation mechanism. That is missing the point of closures. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
