Python Learning Foundation

[Ron Stephens]

The newly rechristened Python Learning Foundation is a web site
dedicated to the assistance of people learning the Python programming
language. Features include:

1. Daily lists of new and recent Python-related web articles,
Sourceforge projects, and Vaults of Parnassus listings. These are
generated using Hans Nowak's Python web spider, mygale.py, and are
automatically updated each day. (You can visit Han's interesting blog
at <a href = "http://www.zephyrfalcon.org/weblog/">zephyrfalcon</a> )

2. Now, there are also daily postings of new and recent web articles,
Sourceforge projects and etcetera for four additional categories,
Zope, Jython, Tkinter, and wxPython, as well as historical listings of
web articles on these subjects. Other specific topics can be covered
regularly upon user request.

3. Links to 76 online tutorials about Python and Python related
subjects.

4. More than 28 reviews of books about Python.

There are many other topics and features covered in the web site, and,
of course, the best is yet to come.

Would a URL be too much to ask for?

On a plain text newsreader that last line was (changing '<' and '>' to '[' and ']' resp):

at [a href = "http://www.zephyrfalcon.org/weblog/"]zephyrfalcon[/a] )
changing angle brackets to square brackets as above, that last line was:
Please visit the [a href = "http://www.awaretek.com/plf.html"]Python

Would a URL be too much to ask for?

You can probably see it if you look at the source text of the post.
Your reader apparently interpreted the HTML (which shouldn't be posted
to the newsgroup anyway except as code examples, but OTOH your reader
will probably have problems showing you HTML code examples).

Thanks. My reader (AOL) will make an un-tagged URL, such as

http://www.awaretek.com/plf.html

into an active link. It makes no sense that it would interpret the tags
so that they disappear from view and yet not actually make the
enclosed text into a link. Bastards.

Oops, my apologies. As Mr. Richter pointed out, the url to Python
Learning Foundation is www.awaretek.com/plf.html and to Han's Nowak's
blog is www.zephyrfalcon.org/weblog/ .

I will try to be more careful in future posts.
