Heh.  I can't wait to see the other replies...  :)

+= has been left out of the language for a good reason, and thus it's
probably not likely that there's an easy way to add it.  I think you
will have to recompile the interpreter to get it to do what you want,
and even then, I don't think that you really want what it would do.

Surely there's some discussion about += in dejanews which would provide
more enlightenment that I can.

Later,
Blake.
