Yes, that's true. I was just following the original poster's lead, but I tend to use a `global` statement whenever I'm mutating a global in a local block. That works as self-documentation and means you don't have to be concerned about the precise case in which it's required, reducing bugs when you change a block so that it would have been required if you hadn't included it. -- Erik Max Francis && [EMAIL PROTECTED] && http://www.alcyone.com/max/ San Jose, CA, USA && 37 20 N 121 53 W && AIM erikmaxfrancis Seriousness is the only refuge of the shallow. -- Oscar Wilde -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
