[1] this lecture is aimed at beginners. it has two parts - a short
(very short) tutorial on python and several scripts and a snippet
showing what i do with python. interesting, elegant (and relatively
short) code snippets showing the power of python will be most welcome!

\begin{mystyle} ... \end{mystyle} directives:
 
 Suppose I defined a logical style called \mystyle. Something like this:
 
 \newcommand{\mystyle}[1]{{\tt #1}}
 
 How can I make a \begin{mystyle} and \end{mystyle} directives to wrap it
 similar to \begin{tt} and \end{tt}?
 
 I don't really need this, but I'm curious to know how it can be done.

RTFB...

\newenvironment{mystyle}{...begin...}{...end...}

(at least, this was in LaTeX 2.09. I doubt this changed in LaTeX 2e)

slide 8, give a concrete example of an 'if' command, like you did
 with the 'while' command.

 regarding 'range': state if the ends aer inclusive or exclusive. it
_looks_ like the start is inclusive, while the end is exclusive
(.e. up to one before the given number). or perhaps its not the
last number in the range, but rather the number of elements in the
range to generate for the list?

slide 10, definition of function 'f' lacks a parameter:
def f:   -- def f(a):

when showing filter, map, 'for' and 'del', write a comment stating
   what the output is, like you did in the rest of the examples.

slide 11, part after 'more conditionals' - what is conditional about these
 assignments?

slide 15: you run a perl script from a python function? blashphemy! :)

general: 'upload.py' is too long to serve as a first script example, and
 introduces too many library functions for a first script
 (REs, OS APIs). better put the googler.py first.

  googler.py might go against the terms of use of google ;)

  also good to put the compile_test.py before upload.py .

  you won't have time to go over all the examples - the tutorial
  part will take more then an hour, in my opinion.

Not, it hasn't, basically (only now you can add a defult parameter).

'info latex' for more details on a proper linux system.
