-- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! I was making donuts at and now I'm on a bus! gmail.com That's a good idea, you can do just about anything from a shell, and I read that Linus Torvalds never uses anything except the shell. I should have also said that right now I'm only working in Windows XP on a really old crappy PC, although I had Linux on my good PC and hope to have it back again soon. (Long story, but I'm a very sick person with limited time and physical energy to get real work done each day.) So when my good PC died I had to choose whether to learn Python or to invest a lot of time getting getting machines flying right. Guess which I choose? ;) Since I will be in Windows for yet awhile, it would be ideal to find an application that will work in both Windows and Linux, and maybe a shell installed in Windows is the way to go. But even within the shell I'd want something to act as a Python application launcher (see my previous post for details), although using just the shell itself to locate and launch Python code is an option. Thanks for the links! I'll likely be installing a shell one way or another to do this, so I'm sure these will come in handy. Deborah -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
