... and not part of a closure, because they're not global. (I'd also say "nor part of an object", but objects in Python have attributes accessed using 'self.', so your other check removes that. But in C++, that would need to be another criterion.) ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
