I wasn't convinced that the linefeed was the problem, but it was the only thing I could think of and was prompted from a recent teaching experience in which a group of students using Windows were having some problems with scripts that they wrote in Wordpad or Notepad. Thanks for sending along your version of this script. I've learned something from it! I didn't know about the dictionary .setdefault function -- that looks very useful, although a little harder (at least for me) to comprehend for the dictionary of dictionaries in this script. It certainly makes the code look cleaner. Cheers, Rob -- Robert L.
