I know a few _very good_ programmers who are unable to understand an English text. Knowing English helps, of course, but is not required at all. Of course, they don't know how to name identifiers in English, but it happens they _cannot_ give them proper Spanish names, either (I'm from Spain). +1 for the PEP, definitely. > But having, for example, things like open() from the stdlib in your code > and then öffnen() as a name for functions/methods written by yourself is > just plain silly.

I always use English names (more or less :-)), but this is not the PEP is about. Javier ---------------------------------- http://www.texytipografia.com
