I was responding to the question "Also, do you use print *that* much? Really?" The implication being that in the majority of useful python programs, you don't really need to use print. My answer is yes, I use print in 100% of the scripts I write, including the large useful ones. For this reason alone, python 3 is incompatible with python 2 (which has already been acknowledged.) Until such time as 100% of the systems I might ever want to run my progams on have python 3 installed, I cannot port my programs over from python 2. -- -Ed Falk, f...@despams.r.us.com http://thespamdiaries.blogspot.com/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
