I think it it 2.7.1: python --version Python 2.7.1 That is what I have anyway, and I don't remember ever updating it. There is Python 3.2.0 available in the ports system. The new release version from python for 3.2.1RC1 is due out May 23. It will probably reach the ports shortly after that date. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+fbsd@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored. Do not CC this poster.
