what it needed to do. Just like on my old machine. I even got the fancy progress popup and the date string in my file names. (At this point I ~did~ dance in the nude, albeit in front of the PC) So what lessons did I learn: 1) compile errors apparently mean Sweet-BLEEP-All; 2) close the curtains when dancing naked around the PC; 3) the back of modern day PCs, which typically sit at groin height on your desk, get really hot at the back. Avoid contact with exposed and/or dangling body parts; 4) there's clearly a reason why I 'gave up on Python' those 10 years ago, and perhaps I'm slowly starting to remember why… :| Jimbo. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
