Well this at least is a Numeric-specific question, not a general Python one. Anyways, the string representation can be controlled by supplying the appropriate callback. From Numeric.py (pardon any unfortunate linewraps): #Use Konrad's printing function (modified for both str and repr now) from ArrayPrinter import array2string def array_repr(a, max_line_width = None, precision = None, suppress_small = None): return array2string(a, max_line_width, precision, suppress_small, ', ', 1) def array_str(a, max_line_width = None, precision = None, suppress_small = None): return array2string(a, max_line_width, precision, suppress_small, ' ', 0) multiarray.set_string_function(array_str, 0) multiarray.set_string_function(array_repr, 1) -- Robert Kern [EMAIL PROTECTED] "In the fields of hell where the grass grows high Are the graves of dreams allowed to die." -- Richard Harter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
