Agreed. Personally, I've always hated how I could not do some of the simplest things with strings in Perl when Perl was supposed to be good at managing strings. Leaving in the ability to iterate strings in Python solved that for me, and I don't see why anyone with a pragmatic view of the language would wish to remove that feature. Mike -- Michael P.
