Syntax grammars can be obtuse. An or_test can be an and_test, which can be a not_test, which can be a comparison. It continues from there. The whole chain of "can be" is: or_test and_test not_test comparison or_expr xor_expr and_expr shift_expr a_expr m_expr u_expr power primary atom identifier ... and identifier is what you are looking for. --Ned. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
