That *is* good news. I've downloaded the latest wxPython, including PyCrust. I think I'll stay with this for awhile and get more used to it. I've been wedded to IDLE all these years, but I don't really like Tk for GUI work. wxPython looks like a better place to tackle GUI-building -- and I might as well do my regular stuff here too, at least for a few months (I'm in XP at the moment -- looks great -- but plan to get it all working on the Linux side too (I'm dual boot)). Kirby PS: any way to turn off those line numbers in the shell? Nevermind, I need to read the docs.

I haven't created a simple configuration option for that, and you're the first to ask for it. But the shell itself is programmable, so this will narrow the left margin, at least for the current session:
shell.SetMarginWidth(1, 0)
The shell object is actually an instance of a "facade" that simplifies the options displayed. To see all the options for the "real" shell object, type:
shell.other.
Then you'll see an autocomplete list of the available attributes and methods. The example I gave you is equivalent to:
shell.other.SetMarginWidth(1, 0)
Nevermind, I need to read the docs.
What docs? "Insert your favorite reference to the children of shoemakers here." <wink> -- Patrick K. O'Brien Orbtech http://www.orbtech.com/web/pobrien ----------------------------------------------- "Your source for Python programming expertise." -----------------------------------------------
