Please re-read my caveat. What I said was (or tried to anyway) was that I cannot write a source file that will work on 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, and 3.0. Actually, it was very close - but for the change in the "except" syntax, I could actually have pulled it off. I should probably use 2to3.py on my unit tests, so that my Py3 version of pyparsing can get tested more fully. I'll also use 2to3.py on pyparsing.py itself, it will make it easier to maintain the Py3 source version. (I'll still have to keep and support two different source versions though, pity.) -- Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
