I don't see how. You said "please" read it. You didn't make fun of the poor spelling and said nothing rude. I can't agree that the response "reeks of arrogance." I've seen the same thing said far more agressively. You have to teach students as you find them. Clearly the querent first needs to be taught how to ask questions. If (s)he took the time to read the link you supplied (s)he will be rewarded by getting better responses not only on this group but on usenet groups generally (and probably IRL as well). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
