There is a routine in the Scripts directory, reindent.py, that will take your source file(s) and remove tabs, unify the indents to 4- spaces, remove needless characters at the end of lines, etc. IIRC, it was written by Tim Peters. We run all of our source files though before checking them into svn. --greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
