That's how it was before r3640; note that most of the callers just used query.monitor() before, which I turned into query.monitor = True now. If my opinion counts, I like the old syntax better; I think "explicit is better than implicit" from the Zen holds here, because you just don't *see* that it's a property when you read "q.monitor = True". (From a language perspective, I like the fact that it's possible to have properties, but I do not see many good reasons to use them at all.) -- Ciao, / / .o. /--/ ..o / / ANS ooo
