I stumbled across Python in 2000 when I ran accross GNUe. I decided to look into Python at that time, and was impressed that the code was readable, and, understandable - even before I looked at the language and library refs. I had been working in a subset of Basic and Delphi at the time. I really don't like Pascal or C/C++ with all of the BEGIN/END and braces. I don't work in Python full time, but do use it for scripting, and "hobby" programming. One heck of a cool language! RCB -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
