Looking through my code, the split-up lines almost always include string literals or elimination of meaningless temporary variables, e.g.: self.expiration_date = translate_date(find(response, 'MPNExpirationDate').text, '%Y-%m-%d', '%m%d%Y') The other cases are when indentation levels get the best of me, but I'm too lazy to refactor. -- Neil Cerutti -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
