if you read the OP's entire post, you'll find that he says what he wants to use multiple methods where "the only difference in them signture are parameters". if you prefer to interpret that as "number of parameters", fine, but that's not how I read it. (I do find this new "I'm going to nitpick on single sentences, no matter what context they appears in" trend a bit boring, frankly. if you think that a statement may be misinterpreted, add a clarification or a footnote. don't assume that you're the only one who know how things work). </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
