Logged In: YES user_id=4771 mwh: "spam.py" was the 5 lines of code above in the message. The weird thing about the while(size>=0) loop is that it may be executed 'size+1' times, as stated. There is an off-by-one bug somewhere. If it works like this, it must obscurely rely on something like Python string arrays being always terminated by an extra NULL character.
