Thank you both. Stupid me, went to Python.org and found Style Guidelines and thought that was the last word. Oh well.
PEP 8 reminds me a lot of Sun's Java conventions, in ways I wish it didn't. The overall structure seems like a random list of topics and it omits a lot. For Java I went from Sun to other conventions to try to compile a meta-convention ( http://www.MartinRinehart.com/articles/code-conventions.html ). Here's just one of my questions: foo = [ 'some item, quite long', 'more items, all demanding there own line as they are not short', ... Where would you put the closing ']'? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
