If you can take some time and master Vim, you'll be set for typing out any 
programming language for the rest of your life.

I hear Emacs is good too, and the GNU project is great, so you could try 
that as well. It's supposed to be more geared towards programming

Regular Expressions

2007-02-10 Thread Geoff Hill
What's the way to go about learning Python's regular expressions? I feel 
like such an idiot - being so strong in a programming language but knowing 
nothing about RE.

The word hack can be known as a smart/quick fix to a problem.

Thanks. O'Reilly is the way I learned Python, and I'm suprised that I didn't 
think of a book by them earlier.

Re: can't find a way to display and print pdf through python.

2007-02-10 Thread Geoff Hill
Are you trying to:
a) Make the PDF file open in it's default application?
b) Create a PDF-reader in Python?

...because your question is somewhat unclear. Report Lab has no PDF viewer. 
You would need a PDF/PostScript parser to do that and that's more of a job 
than I think you're looking for.
