Thanks Tim.
And please don't take it personal. These guys have given their free time
so that we can enjoy their module, they could have no documentation at
all and we should thank them anyway. That said, my comments about
documentation lacking still stand.
I'll check your links as soon as I have some time (right now my use of
python is just for the love of the trade) and if I can come up with
something to improve the docs I'll send it to these blokes.
