Wow... Python detects "dubious syntax"? And here I thought programming was rather black and white, it's right or it's wrong. (He notes examples such as assigning to None and "unqualified exec is not allowed in function" etc.) I guess I've never accidentally hit one of those. Seems like, if I had, I'd probably want to fix the problem rather than hide it, as with most warnings from C compilers. -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
