Hi Marc,
please direct future questions to syfi-dev@xxxxxxxxxx.

This is Python 2.5 syntax, so if you have an earlier version of Python
that is the reason. I also belive I've used Python 2.5 features
several places, so I don't know how much work it would be to make SFC
work with earlier python versions.

What exactly do you mean by "high order quads"?

(And btw, I'll be offline for the next week, so in case you have
further questions I won't be able to answer right away.)
