Yes :). Compare: >>> try: ... os.system('cls') ... except: ... print "Foo" ... Foo >>> print "Bar" Bar With (what you had): >>> try: ... os.system('cls') ... except: ... print "Foo" ... print "Bar" File "<stdin>", line 5 print "Bar" ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax Subtle, but important difference. You should terminate the try-except block (confirm with extra ENTER) before doing more stuff. -- Yours, Andrei ===== Mail address in header catches spam.
