You don't think multiple columns in interactive mode is useful?
The issue is not whether single vs. multi column mode is better, but whether it should automatically switch based on what kind of thing is connected to stdin. Personally I find that behavour surprising and would be happy for it to use multi-column always unless explicitly told otherwise, but it's not a big issue. The thing that *really* annoys me is Linux insisting on colourising the output to a tty, since it invariably seems to pick an undreadable colour scheme. And the case-insensitive sorting... there's a reason Makefile starts with a capital M, dammit! -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
