Sorry, missed that! I don't generally notice signatures much, partly because Thunderbird is smart enough to "grey them out" (the main text is displayed as black, quoted material in blue, and signatures in a light gray.) I don't have a firm answer (though I suspect the language reference does) about when "dedicated" parentheses are required around a generator expression. I just know that, so far, they just work when I want them to. Like most of Python. :-) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
