I seem to remember a rather ugly hack at some point in the past that
created a new "operator" like so
A |dot| B
where dot was an object which had the OR operator for left and right
arguments redefined seperately so that it only made sense when used
in that syntax.
I guess you could hack so

I'm thinking that with a decent dynamics engine (PyODE?) you could
write a reasonably realistic simulator to test this sort of code on.
Obviously it won't be as good as actually you know, driving a Jeep
around by wire, but it'd be a tad cheaper and more time efficient for
anyone interested
Unless I've totally missed it, there isn't a binary tree/sorted list

Except wouldn't it of already read the entire file when it opened, or does
it occour on the first read()? Also will the data returned from

The entire page is downloaded immediately whether you want it to or not when
you do an http request using urllib. This seems slightly broken to me.
Is there anyway to turn this behaviour off and have the objects read method
actually read data from the socket when you ask it to?
