Why rebuild it? You can use a resource editor tool to add/edit/delete the
VERSIONINFO from any Windows executable, including Python.exe ;-)

The function unhexlify() wants an even-length string. From the online help:

The function 'len' is a built-in function in Python. If you assign an
integer to the name 'len', that will replace the function with an int. And
you can't call an int.
My suggestion: Do not use 'len' as a variable name. Use something else, like:

Apart from many other things that spring to mind, I already see an obvious
flaw: 'del' is a keyword, or a 'reserved word' in Python. It is used to
remove variables from the namespace. Tip: Use some

Windows will indeed not allow you to rename or delete a file that's still

Yes, you can. There is only a difference when the string is not found: the
'find()' function will return -1, whereas 'index()' function will raise a
ValueError exception.
For example:

You could use simple string manipulation:

>>> d
datetime.date(2008, 10, 31)

I'm not sure if you are able to bypass Outlook (and have Python fetch the
mail itself using poplib), but if you are, the following code might be
useful. I use this to pry apart emails which mig

I occasionally have a need for printing lists of items too, but in the form:
"Butter, Cheese, Nuts and Bolts". The last separator is the word 'and'
instead of the comma. The clearest I could come up with
