For some people the GUI *is* everything. Most people are unaware that life *even* exists beyond the "point and click". Heck, If you opened a command prompt in front of them, they'd run and hide in a closet for the next three hours consumed with fear. They'd probably convince themselves that "cryptic commands" in a "black window" could be nothing less than sorcery -- and that's usually when the pitchforks come out. Chris, it's obvious you need to climb down from the tower and mingle with the peasants a bit -- don't worry, we'll delouse you when you get back ;-) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
