You don't really need Perl nor sed for that. There's this little gem, hidden in the sources of the Python interpreter: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/python/python/dist/src/Tools/scripts/crlf.py?view=markup I think that the Demo and the Tools directories should be included in all binary distributions of the Python interpreter. -- Nicola Larosa - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Q: Should I dislike Python's significant whitespace?

It's beautiful and right. -- Jarno Virtanen on his weblog, February 2005 _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
