And that Python 3.0 is out? Is 3.0 mature enough to support this sort of programming? I'd go with Python 2.6 for learning. Most tutorials are still either upgrading to v3 or stuck at v2. Once you are comfortable with 2 you can set a flag on v2.6 that will flag any v3 incompatibilities so that you can fix them and get used to the diffrences before finally moving to v3. And by that time most of the 3rd party tools etc will be ported too!

[Tutor] Updating Python on Mac OS X 10.5.6
I'm wanting to put together a simple helper application for a game (a better version of Dwarf Foreman for the highly addictive Dwarf Fortress). It seems like Python would be a good choice for such a relatively simple project, and I've been wanting to learn Python. But I'm not sure what version of Python to use or how to update my Macbook's Python framework. Idle claims that I have Python 2.5 (which seems reasonable), but I understand that we've since moved on to Python 2.6? And that Python 3.0 is out? Is 3.0 mature enough to support this sort of programming? ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
Re: [Tutor] Posting to Tkinter NG in new.gmane.org
Is this a news group or a list group. If it is a news group, you can't use your regular email. I use T-Bird and to subscribe to 'news groups' you must have access to a news group server. If you look under the news properties under servers, you must provide a news group server (NNTP). Your email server(usually POP) will not work.

Without changing anything else, you could do it with a slice:
flist=glob.glob(*.txt)

[Tutor] printing files
Friends,
My files are like below
file1 file2
RemarkRemark
---
---
I have huge number of such files. I want to concatenate all files in one
huge file. I could do it with a script. But i want to omit the first line
(ie Remark in each file) and concatenate. How to do the same ?
flist=glob.glob(*.txt)
out=open('all','w')
for files in flist:
handle=open(flist).readlines()
print>>out, handle <-- Here i want to write only from second line. I dnt
want to loop over handle here and putting all lines except the first one in
another variable. Is there any
fancy way of doing it.
out.close()
