What do you mean when you say the menu doesn't kick in? Do you get an
exception, or does simply nothing happen?
Before the if statements, you should put "print choice" so you can see
what value is being returned by the input function. Also maybe "print
type(choice)" for a bit more inspection.

You just need a one-character addition to your regex:
regex = re.compile(r'', re.S)
Note, there is now a question mark (?) after the .*
By default, regular expressions are "greedy" and will grab as much
text as possible when making a match. So your original expression was
grabbing everything bet
Thanks for clearing up the other incorrect answers! In true Python
fashion, I would also remind everyone of the *documentation* - in
particular the Python tutorial. These are very elementary mistakes to
be making - even worse as part of attempted answers.

As usual, each of us is free to write the code whichever way works best
for the particular problem at hand. That's why the module documentation
often avoids advocating here-is-the-one-best-way-to-do-it. I just like

As pointed out, the module documentation is helpful.
For your 'test' option, I don't think 'action="count"' is the best
action. 'Test' is basically an on/off option, so why count it? I would
use:
parser.add_option("-t", "--test", action="store_true",
dest="optparse_test", default=False, help="tes
Hi,
You can use the built-in function "eval" to return how Python evaluates
your string. For example:
>>> eval( '(1,2,3,4)' )
(1, 2, 3, 4)
In other words, eval will take your string that looks like a tuple, and
return an actual tuple object.
Note that the 'u' prefix in your string will cause an
Both your code snippets above work should work OK. If it seems like a
file isn't being written, maybe you should specify its full path so you
are sure about where to check for it.

The standard pydoc module is very useful. A simple example of how you
could use it:
>>> import pydoc
>>> mymodule = pydoc.importfile(r"C:\My Py\my_foo.py")
>>> html = pydoc.html.page(pydoc.describe(mymodule),
>>> pydoc.html.document(mymodule))
>>> open("foo.html", "w").write(html)
Then you have
Ah, good point, thanks. Must stop forgetting that "C:\file.txt" is bad.

Well, using the open function in Python doesn't launch any application
associated with the file (such as Media Player). It just makes the
contents of the file accessible to your Python code. Also, I think
using file("C:\file.txt") is now preferred to open("C:\file.txt").

Hey, that's good. Thanks Steve. Hadn't seen it before. One to use.
Funny that Pythonwin's argument-prompter (or whatever that feature is
called) doesn't seem to like it.
E.g. if I have

print tupl
Then at the Pythonwin prompt when I type
f(
I correctly get "(tupl)" in the argumen
Sorry, scratch that "P.S."! The act of hitting Send seems to be a great

Of course you need colnr - m for those times when m is set to 26.

Er, yes! It's REALLY ugly! I was joking (though it works)! I retract it
from the code universe. (But patent pending nr. 4040404.)
Here's how I really would convert your (row_from_zero, col_from_zero)

Where do you draw the line?
A function seems more reasonable. "In terms of lines of code" here is
my terse way of doing it:
nrFromDg = lambda dg: sum(((ord(dg[x])-ord('a')+1) * (26 **

I believe you're experiencing a bug that I also encountered, and for
which there is a patch. See:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=5470&atid=105470&func=detail&aid=1110478
Fixing os.py as described in the patch fixed all my CGI-related
problems. Hope it does for you too!
