Hi, Kennet, Thank you for reporting your problems. Yes, the tutorials are not really complete. First and foremost, there should be a "Prerequisites" section that. The problem of the liittle (c) characters is that wiki "kindly" interprets the instruction for PySide copyright notice and neatly prints little circle with c rather than the PySide code for it: © The code is not PySide specific, but rather HTML specific - the text for the notice is HTML sensitive and interprets all symbols as such, so it can have the bold (<b> text </b>) etc in it. Of course, "Joe Bloggs" ir just an alternative to "John Doe" or some other immaginary name and for you should also be replaced by "Kennet Myllykoski" and in place of the encircled (c), type "©". I should mention that in the text. Your experience clearly shows the need for the "virgin" source code to be available - I will upload that to my storage area for all my examples, RSN. The alternative is to make wiki print source without any modification, but that could be very difficult to implement, because wiki also needs to be HTML observant (for things like highlighting etc). To edit the code I use Eric4, which is a kind of "standard" for Python users. I do not know eclipse at all, but will look into it ASP. Keep us informed of your experiences and thank you for reporing.
