I have, in Visual Basic. Its advantage to me wasn't so much that it saved me from typing, but saved me from typing the the incorrect thing, ii.e., if I's been using a variable name "fluid_boiling_pt" I won't, later in the program, type "fluid_boiling_point." I realize that, if I was coding in nice small modules, like I should, I wouldn't have this problem, because the whole code unit would fit on the screen; but this was for a particular course where the fact that I knew enough about programming to have opinions like this was best kept hidden! _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
