See I have to disagree with you. I always hated that spacebar would complete. I found it more natural that space would simply enter a space and you could keep typing. I found it slowed my down more having to change items that would autocomplete when I didn't want them to. Of course, it's a matter of preference and comfort. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
