'/' looks nice and has this "interpret under" sort of meaning:

I'd read that more as "mapped over" rather than "interpret under". ;)

If you are more into algebra, then '*' would probably also appeal to the eye:

'Joe has $$ $a in his pocket.' * locals()

But * is already meaningful for strings, so not a good choice. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> PythonLabs at Zope Corporation
