Gack! It's Python's tuple syntax! Run away! Run away! Seriously, having actually programmed Python for money (no smiley -- it was NOT fun), I can say that this syntactical hack would be a horrible choice for borrowing from Python. Heck, I'd rather Perl take Python's "import" than this abomination of punctuation. -- Chip Salzenberg - a.k.a. - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "It furthers one to have somewhere to go."
