I use a global boolean called trace: if trace: do debug stuff But to try to answer your question: There are two gotos in standard Python. They are spelled: "continue" and "break" The first jumps to the start of a loop, and the last to after the end of one. Anything more fancy is "Verboten" - except, that, if you ask nicely, John Machin might explain his comefrom construct. And maybe I will understand it this time around... - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
