Don't touch it please! Hmmmm.... I always thought of the Demo directory as a repository for example code, which may be used to teach Python programming to beginners. I know, that some pieces are a way out of date. But I think it would be a worthwile goal to update at least some of those pieces step by step to reflect current Python coding habits. The README in Demo says: """This directory contains various demonstrations of what you can do with Python. [...]""" If you want to turn the Demo directory into a museum of code snippets of historic interest, at least the README should say so. ;-) Regards, Peter -- Peter Funk, Oldenburger Str.86, D-27777 Ganderkesee, Germany, Fax:+49 4222950260 office: +49 421 20419-0 (ArtCom GmbH, Grazer Str.8, D-28359 Bremen)
