Hi Michael, You're explanation helped a lot, however, I'm really not good at gui programming and the irc client was supposed to be a console application, but: Would it be hard to just have a send texbox and receive read-only text box?
I'll try this, but I think I should mention that I'm using python-irclib from sourceforge. I'll try Kamaelia, thanks a lot. Joe _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
