curiously, decorator doesn't have this issue, because the way it defines decorators uses *args. so the error i gave cannot occur at the level of the decorator - the extra arg is passed to the wrapped function, and so the error message is correct because it is generated by the inner function. i need to look at my code; this might be the simplest solution of all. thanks, andrew -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
