It would be far more appropriate to *ask* where to put your code *first* rather than to just dump 350+ lines of double-spaced(!) code into people's inboxes, where it will likely be deleted and rapidly forgotten. The standard place for putting Python packages and modules is on the Python Package Index, PyPI: http://pypi.python.org/ For *small* snippets, say, a single function, you can use the ActiveState Cookbook: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/langs/python/ A few random comments about your code: > # Original idea copyright, (C)2009, B.Walker, G0LCU. You can't copyright ideas. > # >>> import afg[RETURN/ENTER] I thought you said you use only "STANDARD Python"? What's afg? It doesn't seem very standard to me: >>> import afg Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named afg > # Import any modules, ~sys~ is not rquired but added nevertheless. > import sys Don't do that. If you don't need a module, don't import it. *Especially* don't import it only to say "Hey, you don't need this code, I'm just wasting your time by making you read this!!!" > # The program proper... > def main(): > # Make all variables global, a quirk of mine... :) It's not 1970 any more. People will avoid like the plague code that over- uses globals. Also, there's no need to put code inside a "main" function that exists only to populate a few global values. Instead of this: def main(): global sine sine = 'blah blah blah' main() Just do this: sine = 'blah blah blah' See how much simpler and clearer it is? > sine=chr(15)+chr(45)+chr(63)+chr(45)+chr(15)+chr(3)+chr(0)+chr(3) This is much more easily and efficiently written as: sine = ''.join([chr(n) for n in (15, 45, 63, 45, 15, 3, 0, 3)]) or even shorter, as a string constant: sine = '\x0f-?-\x0f\x03\x00\x03' -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
