especially in languages where certain combinations really are distinct letters, not just letters with accents or silly marks. I have a Swedish children's book somewhere, in which some characters are harassed by a big ugly monster who carries a sign around his neck that says "Monster". the protagonist ends up adding two dots to that sign, turning it into "Mönster" (meaning "model", in the "model citizen" sense), and all ends well. just imagine that story in reverse. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
