Whether or not this should be changed is tangential to the OP's point.
It must be a bit frustrating to state the obvious over and over and see
it misinterpreted each time. Python has shortcomings. This is one of
them, whether there's valid reasons for it or not. It's better to
acknowledge it and offer something useful rather than "that isn't the
Python way, don't do it."

It is for reading all the lines from a complete file. If the file is

allow you to import all names from a module, unprefixed but
it leads you into the same ugliness and namespace clobbering that you
get with Perl, so I'm not going to tell you how to do it.
I think the 'import long.name as short' syntax will help your wrists the

Also, as noted elsewhere in the string, your C is actually a list of
Cs. So replace my else statement with
return [(child[0], reduceXML(child[2])) for child in node]
I think that'll do what you need. Howe
import it from __future__ yourself. Don't break all current code by
recompiling python to do it. You'll alienate most of your potential
user base, and develop a reputation for not playing well with others.

ead,
try calling:
webbrowser.open("documents/tut.html")
If that works, also try
webbrowser.open("/home/krishna/documents/tut.html")
I suspect both of those will work. There must be some other syntax for
opening URLs directly. Or maybe it interoperates with urllib.

If you take out the space between text/html and ; it works just fine.
(In other words, there is no mime-type "text/html ")

double quotes within the string, of
course), so python sees a \P, a \L a \s, and a \m in your string. There
are two ways to solve this:
1) Use a raw string: r'D:\Python24\Lib'
2) Escape your backslashes: 'D:\\Python24\\Lib'
I assume the real value of 'mycode' has a

There are legitimate reasons to criticize things even when they are
powerful.

you would use that in a way that wouldn't unleash sulphurous code
