Can we get the same patch without the generic "except:", please?
the last thing I want is a database corruption caused by resizing the Edit box...
Why would this particular except clause cause database corruption? int() happens to raise a bunch of different exceptions, and I think an unqualified except: clause is okay here (though it needs a comment). Also note that the unpatched code has an unqualified except: already, so you can't really blame Dmitry. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
