Uh, why? What possible environment are you programming in where the correct answer isn't to grab one of many high-quality libraries to do it? (Homework? If that's the case the Python source will likely prove too complicated to be useful to you due to optimization, though I haven't read it and I don't directly know.) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
