Manually installing PIL
Hello, My host doesn't have PIL installed, and from what i can tell, they won't install it. Is there any way i can copy the needed files near my python script? I'm using Image, ImageFont, ImageDraw and ImageFilter. Thanks. -- Best regards, Ghirai. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Drawing a graph
Hello list, I need to draw a graph, 2 axes, 2D, nothing fancy. One of the axes is time, the other one is a series of integers. I don't care much about the output format. Are there any specialized libraries for this, or should i use PIL? Thanks. -- Regards, Ghirai. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Drawing a graph
I ended up using matplotlib (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net). Thanks for the input everyone. -- Regards, Ghirai. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Running this will start a server on port 80 which will serve files in
the current folder:
import SimpleHTTPServer
import SocketServer
SocketServer.TCPServer(("",80),SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler).serve_forever()

monitoring/restarting an application
Hello list, I need to keep x number of instances of an external applications running, say /bin/x, but also kill and restart each one after y seconds. What would be the best way to do this (with python 2.5.x)? I'm thinking of having a list of running pids, then have a thread check if len(list) < x, and if it is, then start a new process (with os.spawnv?) and add it to the list. Also in the list i'd keep PIDs and some sort of started-timestamp, so i know which to kill. Does this sound reasonable, or is there an easier way? Thanks. -- Regards, Ghirai. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Because i just tried that command with scapy and it didn't send any other packets except what it was told (1 packet with SYN flag set).

urllib getting SSL certificate info
Hello list, Using urllib, is there any way i could access some info about the SSL certificate (when opening a https url)? I'm really interested in the fingerprint. I haven't been able to find anything so far. Any help is appreciated. -- Regards, Ghirai. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
