For what purpose would this be handy? Surely the benefit of the interactive interpreter is that you can simply try it out and *see* what happens. But, in case it helps: Any code may raise any exception at any time. This is a feature, since it encourages program that are tested properly. -- \ "I'm a great lover, I'll bet." -- Emo Philips | `\ | _o__) | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
