If there is ever a Quixote 3, htmltext will be a subclass of unicode. We can't use a subclass now because it would screw Quixote users that have applications that can't handle unicode. I suppose we could have a global switch that turned on "htmltext as a subclass of unicode", just like your qpy patch does. In that case, I think htmltext would be just like qpy except that I don't think I would make "utf-8" the default encoding but use "ascii", like the Python interpreter. Neil
