Only if you tick the box to do that (or at least, that was the case a few versions ago). You don't have to do it manually, but you do have to make sure the box is ticked. (Which might just mean making sure you don't UNtick it; I don't know what the default is.) ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
