Hi all, I'm trying to make a small, threaded FTP app and I'm running into a problem. My program has a GUI (I use PythonCard) and I want the GUI to be responsive while network operations are going on. I assumed that if I made a class (shown below) which was sub-classed from threading.Thread - I w

Those are both fine "next book" choices, and neither should prove a disapointment. However, LP should've left you with just enough knowledge to be dangerous, so I'd encourage you to work on several small projects in python using what you already know. In the process of taking a crack at those, you
