I guess the word ping can make sense as to bring attention to a particular person.

So, since you don't like to be emailed directly, (I'm guessing), I will respond here. Its nice that an occasional participant sticks up and sees the bright of side of that particular OP. My answer was an attempt at humor, specifically for you Rurpy, since after your splendid defense of the OP, he returned to the pattern of asking a question, getting a good answer, then replying with a reply like "no, I want a one liner". Then, starting a new thread and asking the same question again. I don't think the idea of a mailing list or news group is to spoon feed anyone code. That is what you pay someone to do. If you want advice and guidance, its polite to try to learn from it, and move the conversation forward. have a nice day > -- > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list -- Joel Goldstick http://joelgoldstick.com
