Is this a guessing game? You want us to guess why YOU hate to do something? Okay, I'm game for guessing games... You were traumatized as a child by a newline byte, and now you try to write everything possible as a one-liner. Am I close? Speaking for myself, I *prefer* to separate the assignment from the comparison. I dislike greatly the syntax "if (a=b()): a.something()". -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
