Wow - that was a quick answer! Thanks - it works great! I see how I missed this. Neither disable_.. or enable_.. have document strings. And neither seem to described in the optparser section (6.21) of the Python Library (http://docs.python.org/lib/module-optparse.html). I wonder if something like this might be added to the Python Cookbook. Thanks again. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
