What've you got for hobbies? As my first Python based project I wrote something that put up a GUI and allowed me to add and delete records in a file so that I could catalogue my model railway collection. Now I could have used a dB package (overkill) or a spreadsheet (if all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail) or something that someone else had written (mostly MS Windows based) but part of the point was to practise programming in Python. (On top of which, if I do it this way, the thing's much more portable across the OS's that I use.) At the point that my enthusiasm returns I'm going to be coding up a simulation of a gravity shunting yard using PyGame (based on something I saw at the Dutch National Railway Museum) and then further extend that to a more generic shunting simulator. (Should keep me happy whilst I build the basics of the track plan on the model railway boards...) -- Rod -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
