As several other string functions, the two functions we are talking about here come from Python2: http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#string-functions http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#string.translate The Python docs tell the size of the table too: string.translate(s, table[, deletechars]) Delete all characters from s that are in deletechars (if present), and then translate the characters using table, which must be a 256-character string giving the translation for each character value, indexed by its ordinal. If table is None, then only the character deletion step is performed. In Python some times I have built the translation table manually. If makeTrans returns an opaque or privately defined struct this is not possible. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
