I don't think you are missing anything. It was something that just sort of happened one day. I was trying to do something fairly simple in a shell script and didn't have a good way to get the date info I wanted, so I started playing around with python -e. It really SHOULD just be a python script that calls shell stuff, not the other way 'round :-) Still, in the spirit of the OP, I thought it would be appropriate to share. -- David Rock [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
