[Tutor] Replying
When replying to the mailing list, does everyone just hit the reply button in your email program. Because that sends the email directly to your email. Also everyone is cc'ng the mailing list; is that the exceptable way to reply so everyone in the list gets the replies?

Re: [Tutor] Replying
Ok, thanks. I didn't think we should be replying to individuals unless on special case's. I also will have edit my header, but that's fine. -Original Message- From: "Steven D'Aprano" Sent: Monday, March 28, 2011 6:14pm To: tutor@python.org Subject: Re: [Tutor] Replying markri...@gsoftcon.com wrote: > When replying to the mailing list, does everyone just hit the reply button in > your email program.

Depends on the mail client I am using to reply. In mutt or kmail, I hit "Reply to list", and the reply just goes to the list. In Thunderbird, I use "Reply All", and edit the recipients by hand so that it just goes to the list, and curse the Thunderbird developers. You should not reply to the individual unless you have something private to tell them. Keep replies on the list, for the benefit of anyone else reading. Personally, I get annoyed when people CC me on replies that I'm also getting from the list, but I've long since stopped trying to hold the tide back :) Thank you for asking, and welcome! -- Steven ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor Mark R Rivet, Genesis Software Consulting ASCT(Computer Technologies), BSIT/SE(Software Engineering) Electrical Engineering Technician Member IEEE, Computer Society Do or do not; there is no try. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] PyVISA GPIB
I would like to control electronic instruments with PyVISA. I have downloaded PyVISA and unpacked the files into the Python27/lib/site-packages dir and in the IDLE GUI I run "import visa' for a quick check and I get this error: import visa Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in import visa ImportError: No module named visa I'm scratching my head.
