Hi all,
I have a very simple problem that seems to have no simple solution.
I have a module which is installed centrally and lives in a Python
egg. I have experimented with some minor changes to it and would like
to set my PYTHONPATH to pick up my local copy of it, but don't want to
have to figur

Hi all,
I recently needed to parse a file that was perfect for ConfigParser
apart from one thing: the elements in the sections, although
definitions, could in some cases clash with each other and therefore
it was important to be able to retrieve them in the same order as they
appeared in the file.
Tim,
I copied your code exactly from my browser and ran it, so I don't
think there was a typo.
I could upgrade to Python 2.5.2 I suppose to compare and contrast, but
I need to support older
Python versions anyway so it's a bit academic...
Your speculation about garbage collection did set me goin

Unfortunately my previous message was premature, it seems your
workaround doesn't work

Hi all,
I've always wondered why os.kill isn't supported on Windows. I found a
discussion somewhere from 2006 about this so it seems others have
wanted it, but still nothing. So I have a half-baked solution
involving calling "taskkill" on Windows Vista or "tskill" on Windows
XP via the shell. I fe

Ben is correct in his interpretation of what I'm trying to say. The
code "should surely be changed" so that it lets a KeyboardInterrupt
exception through.

To clarify: this is more serious than an incorrect error message, as
the intended interrupt gets swallowed and
script execution proceeds. Sometimes I seem to get half-imported
modules as well,
the script failing later with something like

Hi all,
I have a small python script that doesn't depend on anything except
the standard interpreter. I would like to convert it to a small .exe
file on Windows that can distributed alone without introducing
additional dependencies. I need to assume, because of other python
scripts, that anyone us
I have some marked up text and would like to convert it to plain text,
by simply removing all the tags. Of course I can do it from first
principles but I felt that among all Python's markup tools there must
be something that would do this simply, without having to create an
XML parser etc.

OK, more background needed. I develop the TextTest tool which is a
generic test tool that starts tested applications from
the command line. The idea is that it can handle any system under test
at all, whatever language it's written in. Preferably
without requiring a bunch of changes to the tested

Primarily PyGTK, but I was hoping it wouldn't matter. I hope to be

to start the process as indicated in the original post from within my

tool and instruct the subprocess to be hidden (or minimized? would
that be easier?),

Hi,
As part of my efforts to write a test tool that copes with GUIs
nicely, I'm trying to establish how I can start a GUI process on
Windows that will not bring up the window. So I try to hide the window
as follows:
info = subprocess.STARTUPINFO()
info.dwFlags |= subprocess.STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW

This looked interesting. But it seems the asyncore stuff operates at
the socket level,
whereas I've currently just got a standard synchronous SocketServer
