So skip that. I used that phrase (with correct spelling). I had supposed that it would be recognised as a variation of 'Global variables considered harmful', (William Wulf and Mary Shaw, ACM SIGPLAN Notices, 1973, 8 (2) pp. 28--34). I think nested variables have the same troubles as global variables, so they should be used with care. -- Piet van Oostrum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> URL: http://www.cs.uu.nl/~piet [PGP 8DAE142BE17999C4] Private email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
