Alas, not perfectly so. A 'bytes' object and a 'unicode' object can be described that way (with 'str' an alias for one or t'other), but literal strings are never that simple. (Backslash escapes, delimiters, newlines, etc, etc, etc.) However, it is a nice idea, to the extent that it's possible. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
