Have you worked thoroughly through the Python tutorial <URL:http://docs.python.org/tutorial/>? You will exercise many fundamental concepts, including the exception handling system. > Below is the actual code. It only works on the local bbs that I hang > out on. Sorry.

You achieve this by one of two methods: * start with a program that does extermely little, and add as little as possible until you have a very small program which demonstrates the behaviour. Once you have this, continue below. * remove apparently-irrelevant parts from the program until the behaviour stops occuring; the most recent removal, then, is at least related to the behaviour. Add it back in. Repeat these until you have aprogram which can't have any part of it removed without losing the behaviour that's confusing you. Once you have that, post it here with your question. -- \ “Good morning, Pooh Bear”, said Eeyore gloomily. “If it is a | `\ good morning”, he said. “Which I doubt”, said he. —A. A.
