True. For example I for one also like the way the current print adds a newline, the vast majority of the time that is exactly what I want. I don't know if this will be kept when print becomes a function (might be that some default parameters make it work the same way) Which reminds me of an experience I had when I originally learned how to program in Pascal, then moved on to C. At first it felt wrong that I had to include the "\n" to print a new line at the end, seemed unreadable (Pascal had separate functions: write and a writeln for it). Today I'd consider it appallingly bad design to have separate functions for such a small difference. i. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
