It will work as long as it doesn't hit a "<I>...</I>" line that doesn't contain a date matching the '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Z %Y' format. In fact, that is one of those things that won't happen as long as the message files are all "well formed", but is there in order to keep looking in case it does. Python doesn't care that the name 'next' is undefined until it actually tries to execute it. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
