Great, now the Google results will just be filled with AMD typoes. :-P One downside of Athon is that "Python" makes for a good two-letter abbreviation: py. It sounds nice (hey, pie), and since it ends in a vowel, is good for project names: PyGTK or pytz or whatever. AtGTK and attz don't have quite the ring. -- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
