Dave I looked at LAMP it really didn't have everything I need well more like want. I was thinking instead of Vi or emacs have a text editor written in python which would save a lot of space. Instead of lynx have one in python.

You might want to look at puppyOS. http://www.puppyos.net/ It is designed to boot from USB memory and provides a small footprint OS. http://www.puppyos.net/pfs/ Describes how to build puppy from scratch (pfs) which would allow you to build your own tiny version. > We could have a mail client, a text reader/editor, text based web > browser, all in python.

Shooting for a floppy disk based distribution is too much pain with too little gain for me. The puppy approach of a bootable OS that you can carry in your pocket is pretty slick. I'm using a 1 GB USB flash which is, for me, reasonably low cost and far better than carrying floppy disks. > _______________________________________________ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor -- Lloyd Kvam Venix Corp
