Unfortunately, "also" is also a bad keyword to use for this, IMHO. I don't find it any more intuitive than "else". (And since your idea would break if-else code, I don't think it would be allowed, anyway). I can't think of what would be a better keyword, though. :-/ -- Terry Hancock ( hancock at anansispaceworks.com ) Anansi Spaceworks http://www.anansispaceworks.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
