My understanding is that the Pedroni-style interfaces are big; they are just decomposable. File would be a (large) interface, but you could also specify that you only cared about (or only implemented) the subset consisting of File.close and File.write, in case you wanted something sort-of-like an existing interface. -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
