Your first sentence suggests that you already know the basics of programming, so perhaps you meant something a bit different? such as not figure out for yourself the basic idioms of Python, but learn them from code? In any case, item 1 seems too broad for specific help. As to item three, there are modules and indeed programs available. Check PyPI on the Python site, or search this newsgroup's archives (groups.google.com) or the web generally. tjr -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
