That's OK, I wasn't sure when you said you joined via gmane.org whether you were a local or not (the LinuxSA mailing list has a lot of non-local members). If you'd come in via http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/sapug the "About sapug" reads: "We're a Group of Users who use Python, and we live in South Australia. I realise the name is deceptive, but there you have it." Which is also deceptive because we like to discuss other languages as well. :-) > It's sort of strange because I keep hearing this > REPL thing, which sounded like fancy term for PERL If you haven't already, read the link that John posted earlier about LISP on spacecraft, which gives a good REPL story. f you're a newcomer to languages in general, the best advice I can give as an "old timer" (NE555? *groan*) is that old languages still have something to offer, especially when their features start popping up in new langauges and are then touted as "recent inventions" (insert XML/s-expr Java/Smalltalk flamewar >here<). > But it's really good that I joined atleast, learn something new in every > post. :) Except probably this one. :-) Enjoy! -- Regards, Daryl Tester, IOCANE Pty.
