I understand the need to warn a questioner that this list *might* not be the best forum for their question; however, I fully enjoy these types of posts as often even if I don't fully understand what is being discussed, I still can cull valuable information. Also, sometimes something *clicks* and I am able to solve an issue that has been baffling me for a while. Plus it gives me thought to what to study in the future... -- boB _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
