Using this, I get the following response to too many arguments:
>>> g = Foo(1, '3', 4.0, 'spam', 'eggs') Traceback (most recent call last):

of the software.
I think you will actually get what you want by just using a copyleft
free-license like the GPL. This will prevent the software from being
absorbed into a commercial proprietary product, which is what I
consider the reasonable part of what you are asking for.

ough to set this up as the standard way to contact
tech support.
Most likely you are working with Windows clients, so you'll need
something other than "uname", but I'm sure there is something
appropriate. You can do it by examining information in Python's
sys module, too,
#x27;..', 'C', filename)
f = open(filepath, 'r')
etc.?
It's really quite straightforward to walk up and down directory trees, please
take a closer look at the documentation for os and os.path modules (see
http://www.python.org to find documentation for your version).
e I'm not totally off-base here --- I've had relatively little
experience with mixed versions and pyc files, so my assumptions
may be a little off, but hopefully someone will correct me if that's so.
Cheers,
Terry

Ooh, I like that. I'm going to file that under "useful excuses".
Could come in handy! ;-D

I haven't used it, but according to the Python 2.4 documentation,
the subprocess module does not use any shell. Or the shell is python,
as it were.

It looks to me like Python just deleted a read-only file owned by
root in order to replace it with a new pyc file. Can somebody
explain that to me?! Isn't that supposed to be impossible?
(I can
y'd have to be in __init__.py or possibly in
mod1 in order to work correctly), but it's pretty close.
