Writing to Console on mac OS X

I'm on mac os x 10.4.11 running python 2.5.2, and Django 1.0, but this is a python question. When doing django/mod_python stuff, I can write to the Apache error_log file with sys.stderr.write("SOMETHING I WANT TO KNOW") which had me wondering if there's not a means for a misc. python pro

Re: coding style - try, except

I'm glad I asked :) Thanks all who posted for your replies, the else-statement is a nice option. Python again comes through to deal with those pesky feelings that something could be better :) Ross. Chris Rebert wrote: Yes. try-except-*else*. try: do_something_1() do_something

file write collision consideration

I have a thread that is off reading things some of which will get written into a file while another UI thread manages input from a user. The reader-thread and the UI-thread will both want to write stuff to the same output file. What first comes to mind is that there may be write collisions, ie

Blanket font setting?

I'm doing an app with the AUI manager capabilities (using some of the wxPython demo's for help). All is well, except I'm a bit disappointed with the font management. The default font for all the widgets (TextCtrl's, StaticText's etc) are a bit large for my design intent and as I try to adjust
