I'm just looking for a reliable error message when I pass something to GUI functions which is not fit for display, i.e. not a string. If bytes pass unnoticed, I'll sooner or later have a surprise. Just to make sure I decode all bytes (coming from a socket) before I pass them on to the GUI. Regards, Matthias Kievernagel -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
