Although I admit, that error message could be improved. At least including the object in question would be better, for instance: TypeError: unsubscriptable object "None" Or perhaps also changing "unsubscriptable" to something more comprehensible to newbies: TypeError: object "None" does not support the subscript operator
This error message was discussed on python-dev back in April, but I don't know that anything ever came from it. http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-April/078744.html It would good if it was at least unified for all objects (which it was not at the time, maybe it is now..) -Scott -- Scott Dial scott@scottdial.com scodial@cs.indiana.edu
