Yes, I understand this, it's similar in the US. That's why I had doubts about it. I did just chat with Huron about it and he thinks the problem may be solvable, though certainly inconvenient at the least. > And about the French language: Try to find some french radio > broadcast on the internet or something like that, and see if you can > understand it.

I think the best way to deal with this is to listen to live speakers for several hours a day. After a few weeks, the words come into focus from the formerly continuous blur of sound. After that, one must of course still work on figuring out what they mean ;-). As I mentioned, I once had a good French class in school, and at that time I could understand spoken French fairly well. That was a long time ago but I think it would come back. I never learned any French computer jargon back then and don't know any now, but I expect I could pick it up. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
