Yes, it's a problem. If you don't call Py_Finalize, atexit handlers, object destructors and the like will not be called. These include destructors of file objects (including stdout): any buffering in a still-open file opened for writing can be lost. Regards Antoine. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
