I know how you feel; it's brutal trying to get elementary information from this group. I think what he is hinting at is that you are missing a right parentheses. msgNum = int(split(msg, " ")[0] should be: msgNum = int(split(msg, " "))[0] msgSize = int(split(msg, " ")[1] should be: msgSize = int(split(msg, " "))[1] Now if only somebody would tell me, with elementary examples, how you write to the thing called 'stdout' and how you read from 'stdin'. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
