It would have been better phrased "nobody _should_ actually want to". Sure, it was fun _producing_ output like that. But for anybody who had to read it, the novelty wore off pretty quickly. After few lines it was just annoying. Most of us don't need any help making our writing even more annoying. -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
