Cool. Please don't post context-free messages though - not everyone knows that you were talking about IRC. (Part of that is because your subject line didn't mention IRC either.) If you're going to do a lot with IRC, I would recommend either picking up a dedicated IRC library, or reading up on the protocol. You'll need to understand the exact limitations and restrictions, how to properly escape things, etc, etc, etc, if you're going to talk over a plain socket. It's not a difficult protocol to use, but you should learn its subtleties. (Or just grab a library.) ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
