And furthermore it's the default anyway (what else would it be?:-).
However, to Gerald, that type of code won't work in the general case -
you have no guarantee that a chunk of data you send down a TCP socket
comes out as one chunk at the other end => use one of the {packet, N}
(N /= 0) options (with the equivalent change at the Python side, of
course).
