All this talk about cutting things off worries me. In the case of numbers at least, if you can't afford to expand the column width, normally the right thing to do is *not* to cut them off, but replace them with **** or some other thing that stands out. This suggests that the formatting and field width options may not be as easily separable as we would like. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
