Python Newbie
Hi all, I came accross this article by Eric Raymond in which he has sung peans about the python language. Well that has whetted my appetite... So I decided to get down and dirty. But alas I got down but not dirty.. i cant seem to find a good tutorial to help me get started. Whats the next best thing to do? Ask the pros and where do you find them...in a mailing list of course. So heres me asking if anyone has any pointers to some good basic python tutorial. Something that teaches one to get going. Thanks a ton guys, Linuxfreak -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
wxPython Menu problem
Hi all,
I have a problem. I want to add items to a Menu iteratively and I'm
stuck. Heres a snippet of my code
fileMenuChoices=[('&New','Start a New Document',self.onClick),
('&Open File...','Open an Existing Document',
self.onClick),
('&Save','Save Current Document', self.onClick),
('---'),
('E&xit','Close Window', self.onClick),
('&About','Information', self.onClick)]
.
.
.
.
fileMenu = wxMenu()
for opt in fileMenuChoices:
fmID = wxNewId()
if(opt[0] != '-'):
fileMenu.Append(fmID,opt[0], opt[1])
EVT_MENU(self,fmID,opt[2])
else:
fileMenu.AppendSeparator()
#Creating the MenuBar
menuBar = wxMenuBar()
menuBar.Append(fileMenu, "&File")
self.SetMenuBar(menuBar) #Add menubar to the Frame (Window)
def onClick(self,e):
...
...
The problem is I get an error saying name 'self' not defined...
Any help will be appreciated

Python IDE
Hi guys, Got going with python...and i must say its a pretty cool language. Been using Xemacs to write me programs. But I want an IDE that would give me auto-completion, online help and the like... Tried SPE and Dr.Pyhton but the former crashes regulary and the latter is quite unweildy and does not have a great many features. I quite like the UML feature found in SPE but the damn thing crashes way too often. What are you guys using and what do you think is the best IDE...or should i stick with Xemacs/emacs??? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Python IDE
ok will give it a shot. I had tried the 0.7.2 version with wxPython 2.6 and the moment i place the cursor in a class name and pressed the space or the enter key.booom there it went crashing without a trace. But i did like what little i saw of it (apart from the crashes, of course) and the UML diagram feature was just great. Lemme use this version and then i can give some feedback. One more thingI'm trying to use the wxStyledTextCtrl in one of my programsany pointers to where I can find a good tutorialTried yellowbrain.com but it just has the docs and not a tutorial. Thanks a ton and keep up the good work -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
wxPythin installation woes
Hi all, Was working with python 2.3 in a fedora core 3 machine. I upgraded it to Fedora Core 4 with a clean install. So now I have python 2.4 installed. But when I try to install wxPython for python 2.4 using an rpm file i downloaded from the wxpython web site i get dependencies errors. Turns out that libstdc++.so.5 is needed but I checked and i see that libstdc++.so.6 is installed on my system. Help needed guys and needed pronto. Thanks a ton once again :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

wxPython & Fedora Core 4
Hi guys, Has anyone installed wxPython on Fedora Core 4. Apparently it need the libstdc++.so.5 file while Fedora installs the newer libstdc++.so.6 file. I tried installing the libstdc rpm from fedora core 3 which would have installed the required file but Fedora does not allow multiple versions of the same file . Man this is frustrating. Help desparately required.. Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Libgmail
Funny enough I find the same "Google" in my browser too. and if my memory serves me correct I did the same search which you allude to. It is only after series of exhaustive searches rummaging through websites with incomplete (or non existent ) docs that i posed the question here :) thanks for the suggestion anyway Jussi Salmela wrote: > linuxfreak wrote: > > hi guys, > > > > just starting out on python and libgmail... any documentation for > > libgmail outthere... basically what i want to do is develop an > > application to use gmail like and ftp server... should be able to > > upload files and download them as well > > > > thanks > > > > My browser has this amazing thing called Google installed.
