Greetings all, Please forgive my instrusion with some simple questions. I don't have any formal training in programming so I have to get some guidance to some terminology from time to time. What is a generator and what is its purpose?
I am planning on building a DVD catalog utility for Linux in Python, or at least that is my ultimate goal in starting out. The only one I have found is buggy and does not work on my system. So the only other alternative is to write one myself. Because I plan on releasing it with the source when I get done I would prefer to have it as polished as I can make it :) I look dumb enough on my own thank you! So I may have a quite few questions as I move along regarding databases and connectivity along with a possible way to mount a CDROM or any other media as needed either authenticated or unauthenticated depending on the system settings in the fstable. Obviously if user is not in there then I will have to sudo to root to mount the drive in order to read it. Then we have sorting. It doesn;t make sense to toss this into a database willy nilly if I don't so some sorting on it beforehand by type. I am open to suggestions. So thank you all in advance for your time and your patience! Warm regards, -- Doug Glenn FORUM Information Systems, LLC http://foruminfosystems.com
