Help with character encodings
Help! I've scraped a PDF file for text and all the minus signs come back as u'\xad'. Is there any easy way I can change them all to plain old ASCII '-' ??? str.replace complained about a missing codec. Hints? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
PyExcerlerator details
Hi, I'm using PyExcelerator, and it's great, but I can't figure out a few things: (1) I set the cell style to '0.00%' but the style does not work. (2) I want to place a border around the cells( x1, y1, x2, y2 ) but I can't find any example of doing that. Well I do see ONE example, but it erases the cells if I do it after, or when I write to the cells that erases the outline. Surely I don't have to tediously set each cells border?

matplotlib psd
Kudos to matplotlib in python, it's a real slick package. But I'd like to do several power spectrum density calls [ psd() ] and control the color of each. I don't see any obvious option for this. Any hints? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Love matplotlib, but....
I love matplotlib, but I want to do a polar plot using your basic compass type plot, i.e. zero degrees at the top, degrees going clockwise. I don't see a real easy way to do this. Any examples? Thanks! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
noobie question regarding installing a package
HI, I'm trying to install NumPy and the instructions say: python setup.py install When I try that it says, unhelpfully: "This is the wrong setup.py" So what does this mean, and what is the right setup.py? Thanks, grg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
