Hello all, <IMHO>
Although I have encountered many modules that have impressed me with regards to what they can actually do -- too be perfectly honest, it's very rare that I become impressed by the _interfaces_ to the modules. Using a new module is normally, with my - admittedly - limited experience, a pain. It's not just about reading the reference material, and then just use it. You have to figure out how the developer who wrote the module was thinking. Often there's a (more or less) natural way to do things, and unfortunately that's not how module developers do it. It's not a major issue to me personally, since the important part is that the module can perform its function. But then there are a few modules that I just love to use, because they are so "clean" from interface to function. Among them I can't help mentioning optparse. Yesterday I found another module which I fell in love with: Python Cryptography Toolkit (http://www.amk.ca/python/writing/pycrypt/). It's just so ... elegant, and functional. </IMHO> -- Kind regards, Jan Danielsson -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
