FWIW "contrair" is how it's spelled in the Oxford English dictionary (I actually did look it up before posting because it seemed like there ought be an 'e' on the end). The dictionary also says it's chiefly Scottish but the etymology indicates from the Old French "contraire". Technically I suppose I should have written "Oh, *on* contrair" or better yet just "On the contrary". ;-) -Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
