Yes, the gobbledygook is caused by selecting html email, rather than the needed text form. As for the code that's buried inside there, it seems to have no usefulness if the file is run directly as a script, but if it's imported from another script, it adds a particular directory to the search path. Subsequent imports may find imports in that directory. -- DaveA _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
