All plot solutions i found where for python2.x. gnuplot_py states on its homepage you need a 'working copy of numpy'. I don't think numpy is ported to python 3.x. Or is it?

Totally agree with you. No need for a heavy machinery in this case. Then just save all the data as csv and you can always load it into a spreadsheet later if the IRS comes knocking, or you need to print a professional looking spreadsheet ;-). Simple, 100% python solution! Actually, a spreadsheet based solution isn't best fit for such a task. I'd recommend to store the data in sqlite3 (also 100% pure python as the module is in the stdlib). CSV is good for making invoices or something like that. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: did anybody play with python and window mobile broadband?

There was a discussion on this subject in some local forum recently. I assume you're using PythonCE, right? The best solution proposed there was to use ctypes and WinAPI. You can find a relatively high level APIs to set up a connection (without need to go too low level with AT commands) and make your own wrapper. A good starting point can be found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb416346.aspx (it's not the only way to to things, btw). -- regards, eGlyph -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: url2lib (windows 7) does not notice when network reconnects (getaddrinfo problem)

Is this behaviour known? Can this really be possible? I can reproduce this issue. not every time, but rather often. If yes, is there any way to force a new host name lookup under windows? What else could I be doing wrong? Thanks a lot in advance for any ideas N Actually this should be expected behavior. Windows establishes connection automatically when you start pinging something, your script doesn't. Just check the connection state with winapi (ctypes? pywin32?) and establish it if it isn't already. -- regards, eGlyph -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Install 2.6.4 as non-admin on Windows
On 18 мар, 16:45, Mark Carter alt.mcar...@googlemail.com wrote: How do I install python 2.6.4 on Windows without admin privileges? Can I install it on a machine I control, zip up the contents, copy it across to an admin-restricted machine, and set up a couple of environemtn variables? Does python install files to system directories, making this impossible? The only file written to a system folder is python2x.dll (I think it's not true for python2.6 any longer), so your approach is perfectly valid if you can put this dll into a folder where it can be found by the system. PortablePython does this almost the same. -- regards, eGlyph -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
