That would be because people are spending more time using Python than installing it. :) But I'd say that this is a fine place to ask these sorts of questions. However, what I will say is this: Using Google Groups is a great way to annoy a lot of people. Notice how your above paragraph came out as a single line, meaning that it wasn't correctly wrapped before getting the "> " prefix for quoted text. That's not good, and it's one of the least of GG's annoyances. Please use a better client, or if you insist on using Google Groups, check this out: https://wiki.python.org/moin/GoogleGroupsPython ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
