For things that are only ever to be viewed on the terminal, yes. But this does, of course, print an actual backspace character. If you feed this output to another program, chances are it will not treat <space><backspace> as no space at all. I prefer building up a list and doing ' '.join(thelist) in these situations. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <jgrahn@ Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu \X/ algonet.se> R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
