I've been using Perl for a decade and had a hard start into Python. Mainly because I used those "phrasebooks" and tried to convert my Perl syntax statement-by-statement. However Python doesn't just have another syntax but also other concepts. It's worth working yourself through the diveintopython tutorial. Or if you want to spend money I strongly recommend the book "Beginning Python: From Novice to Professional" (ISBN 159059519X) because you learn a lot about daily problems and gotchas, too. Besides from the "I'm cool because I'm the only one who can read my code" factor that Perl delivers Python has everything you need. :) Kindly Christoph -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
