without going into details on how to do these things in python(many suggestions have already been made) i think you need to take a step back Why do you want to do these particular things in this way? is it because this is what is needed to get the job done or is it because this is what's needed to get the job done in perl? if the later then step back and think what is the real goal & program accordingly. Each language does things differently ( if they didn't we wouldn't have different languages!) what is Best for perl (or c , java, pascal or malbolge) may not necessarily be the best for Python & vice Versa. -- backups: always in season, never out of style. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
