Well, I used to be a FidoNET moderator (back 5+ years ago). I moderated
the EDUCATOR conference at that time.

Har, har. I am somewhat familiar with Perl. I just don't write my own
code in Perl. But I do appreciate the "one way to do it" of Python,
true.

:did you get the python class i posted a while ago? let's you create maximus
:style logs for your python programs. but of course you could modify it to
:create different type logs if you were inclined.

No, I didn't see any Python in the subject lines. I wasn't downloading
the headers for about a couple of weeks. Maybe I missed it?

:i also have the perl and tcl version. working on ruby, and rebol, and some
:compiled language versions.

Well, I would be interested in seeing your Python code. If you don't
want to repost it, you could email it to me.
