My newsreader supports threading, but the first message I see in this thread is from Devan L. I didn't notice the "Re:" and assumed his post was half in the subject line and half in the body. Sometimes I only download the 100 most recent posts, so I don't see the original (or referred-to) post. Other times the threading doesn't work properly, splitting conversations or using the wrong level of indentation. Also, this is both a newsgroup and a mailing list, and that has adverse effects on threading as well. So, please quote. =) Dave -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
