Yes, this is true, but also irrelevant. The question isn't about the code, but about the documentation. The answer does appear to be hidden quite deeply. I had to dig out an old "What's New" for version 2.2 to find it, hidden away in a section on iterators: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePython/2.2/whatsnew/2.2/index.html#SECTION000400000000000000000 -- Steven. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
