I actually like them. I think that the = should be a comparison operator, not a silly ==. I think that comparisons using = are much clearer, especially since you often write many of them in a row, whereas you almost always make one assignment per line. I use := every day in PL/SQL, and it's one of the few positive syntactical features of the language. Peace Bill Mill bill.mill at gmail.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
