Hi Hendrik, > I have ended up writing a netstring thingy, that addresses the string > transfer problem by having a start sentinel, a four byte ASCII length (so you > can see it with a packet sniffer/displayer) and the rest of the data escaped > to take out the start sentinel and the escape character.

> If anybody is interested I will attach the code here. It is not a big module. I am interested in seeing your code and would be grateful if you shared it with this list. Thank you, Malcolm -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
