Why so you do. Did you expect that people would read it? As a rule, sigs fade into the background -- my mail client colours it grey, my news client colours it light blue, and I generally don't even notice it. The Zen of Python applies here: explicit is better than implicit. >> If you upgrade Python, does the problem go away? > I use the most recent stable version.

If you can't reproduce the bug, it's unlikely to be fixed, but you might get lucky. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
