Forgive me if I've missed something here, but isn't it only possible to make a refloop by decidedly abnormal behaviour? Stuff like: a=[]; a.append(slice(a)) Seriously, who does this? First you have to have a reference to a container in place of an index, and then you have to retain the slice object inside that same container as well. Neither operation is normal use of a slice. Where is the problem? ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
