No. I like the x[i] syntax. I use it in every second row of my code and getting an item like: x.getitem(i) would be a viable (in this case clumsy) way but here I find the introduced syntax justified. del on the other hand is used sparingly througout my code. If no del keyword would exist, it wouldn't disturb me. Marco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
