I have not tried this on Windows, though.
In many languages, C and Python included, the formfeed (^L) is just another piece of whitespace. You don't even need to comment it. C:\Tmp>type x.py print "before" ^L print "after" C:\Tmp>x.py before after C:\Tmp> (Pedantic note: I cheated there. My cmd session did not really say "^L". It gave me the symbol for female, which is code point 12 in the default character set. I translated it to the VIM equivalent to make the point.) -- - Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
