Ah, the curse of Pythonicity Relativism! What has society come to that it cannot recognize Absolute Pythonicness and Absolute Perlishness? The measure of Pythonicness was given to us in the inerrant Gospel of Tim! Every word of it is literally True! Incant the words "import this" and you shall see in glowing letters before you the Gospel of Tim. Count the number of verses For and the number Against. If the For verses outnumber the Against, the construct is Pythonic, absolutely and without equivocation for all people as Guido indented. ask-me-how-to-calculate-the-age-of-the-universe-ly y'rs, Acolyte Kern -- 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
