Now, that is not even funny, as that was my initial version, and Python
complained about not knowing "false".

That is because in python the keyword is "False" (note the capital 'F').

I too write True/False in my recent Python code, but I vaguely recall they
were relatively new to the language.  I think it was 2.3 which is probably
5 years old by now, so if that is the case we probably are safe (and they
are used in p4import anyway).

I think I spotted a bug in Python documentation, by the way ;-)

http://docs.python.org/ref/ref.html does not even list "True" and "False"
in its section 2.4 (Literals) yet, and that document is for version 2.5.2.

That's because they aren't literals. They are, in fact, objects, and
redefinable objects at that.

Try:

True=False
print True

Hey, I said that I had to code in Python until I do not hate it anymore!

You just made that task harder.

Thanks,
