Eh? Nah, we keep getting lame excuses on why those things aren't needed and users should just supply tenacity and expect to suffer and they should stop being wimps, and having to locate, download, and figure out how to use a dozen packages from all over the internet really isn't more hassle than a one-click install with unified documentation for everything. > If you want to see these nice accoutrements, *stop posting here and > get to work*! Eh again--says who? You? Most of those functions for Python are already floating around the net. It's simply a matter in many cases of deciding to include them in the distro. The problem is an attitude that making things too easy for users is un-Pythonic. If you think it's just a matter of writing code, you're not on the side you think you're on. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
