There's one place where Python 2.6 isn't Python 2.6 for any practical purposes: where it isn't already installed. If I have a half-dead box, or one that's locked into a certified configuration, or one that's simply too small to hold a "big" interpreter, then my Python skills are useless. On the other hand, my Bourne skills are useful everywhere that claims even a vague similarity to UNIX. I like Python. I use it for small applications. I don't use it for systems scripting. Wrong tool for the job, IMO. -- Rich P. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
