as anyone who's spent enough time on c.l.python knows, people expect it to mean "application global". it isn't. alternatively, they expect it to be a scope specifier to be used when creating the variable, rather than when referring to it. it isn't. the exact meaning of "global" is one of the well-known "you only need to learn this once" things in Python. a reinterpreted global would fall in the same category. </F> _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
