I usually mount cdroms on /dev/cdrom
Surely that's where you mount cdroms *from*? I can't think that
using /dev/cdrom as the mount point would be a good idea!
Oops, yes, that should be /usr/cdrom, sorry.

Unfortunately, most of them seem to be aimed at people who aren't
newbies. I think the world needs a good set of programming puzzles for
beginners.
It would sure be helpful to have a library of newbie type projects ... I'm
teaching myself with the "think like a computer scientist' books, and

Luke,
I used a video from Lynda.com, simply because I already had a
subscription. The price was about $25 per month which I think is more
expensive that showmedo. Or you could buy it for $99 (Python 3 Essential
Training (DVD-ROM)).
The video's were very good for me personally because he was stra
Also, if you have not yet chosen an IDE I recommend eclipse with the
pydev extension. Google them or if you use gnu/linux (like ubuntu) you
can get it from the package manager. It is a very simple interface, with
syntax highlighting, debug mode and console.

Thank you! I was getting confused, I thought I wouldn't need Tkinter. I

So I actually need both? And this brings me back to my _other_ question
which is that as individuals go about downloading these addon libra
For my first program, I liked creating a number game, simple and where the
user made a choice. That was good for learning how to interact with the
user. The raw_input() function.

Tkinter is the standfard GUI toolkit for Python and as such comes as
part of the
standard library. (Although you do have to compile Python with that
option
enabled in some Linux distros)
Thanks for the explanation. I will go ahead and trying using these
functions in my program.

Tkinrer is quite easy once you get the hang of it.
Its also a good intro to GUI frameworks in general if you ever
need to move top something more advanced.
