What exactly do you mean by a wrapper? Are you thinking of something like a 3rd-party library providing a string-like object which doesn't claim to inherit from str, and has a subtly different API? That seems to get the bad from both choices, and the good from neither. -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
