Thanks for the replies, everyone. After posting I went back and reviewed some of my old C books as well as the C++ ones. It's interesting and instructive to look back at C++ after you've used languages like Python for a while. I'd forgotten how complicated C++ code can get. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
