I'm a fan of this style, because it's easier to read and it involves a lot less duplication... at the same time, I can see the 'grep' case.

This would generally be handy anyway :). _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
