I use sys.stdout.write('\a') to beep. It works fine on Kubuntu, but not on two other platforms (one of which is Ubuntu). I presume that the problem is due to a system configuration issue. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks. -- Jeffrey Barish -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/

How to represent a sequence of raw bytes

2008-12-21 Thread Steven Woody
Hi, What's the right type to represent a sequence of raw bytes. In C, we usually do 1. char buf[200] or 2. char buf[] = {0x11, 0x22, 0x33, ... } What's the equivalent representation for above in Python? Thanks. - narke -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
