Will it be confusing to have the method be named wantobjects but the module variable named want_objects?

That might well be. I was trying to be consistent with "createfilehandler", "dooneevent", etc. Should I break this consistency, or remove the underscores everywhere else? I really have no bias either way. Regards, Martin

Ah, OK. Consistency with the rest of the Tkinter module is most important, so wantobjects() makes the most sense as the method name. --amk (www.amk.ca) HAMLET: O my prophetic soul! -- _Hamlet_, I, v
