This is not exactly relevant, but I've always wanted the L (size) qualifier to accept k or m (or K or M) as modifiers. I never seem to want to check for anything smaller than about 50k, in which case zeros proliferate. Often, I just assume it's there and find it isn't. Unfortunately there's never been a gap between feature freezes long enough for me to write it. It needs bearing in mind, though. -- Peter Stephenson Tel: +44 1792 205678 extn. 4461 WWW: http://python.swan.ac.uk/~pypeters/ Fax: +44 1792 295324 Department of Physics, University of Wales, Swansea, Singleton Park, Swansea, SA2 8PP, U.K.
