Ed, Actually, the Djangogirls link that Alan provided is amazingly good. While it is geared to beginners (this is what a variable is, etc.) it doesn't waste time on details and you can actually get a working model up rather quickly. I wish I could find more tutorials like that. Most would have used 3-4 days to get to what they do in an hour or so.....
My most interesting python question is related to the "file... import ..." command. Apparently, you can't specify a parent folder in the file portion, just the current one. But there is a way to designate where other files may be found, I just haven't figured out where that gets set, especially when using environments. Then the other part of the environments question is how to know if the code (or whatever) is coming from the main system or from the environment. I know I will get this figured out soon, but getting Django working first is a much higher priority as I need to write a backend demo system using it....
