I use ActiveState Python distro for Windows, so what I mean by the =
standard library are the py files in the Lib directory. They are present =
in other distros for other platforms as far as I can tell.

Also, since there probably is a lot of stuff there that does not =
interest you, you could also search the vaults of parnassus for stuff =
more akin to your interests. It is the closest thing there is to CPAN in =
the Python world.

With my best regards,
G. Rodrigues

P.S: I hate to be a nitpicker, but could you ditch HTML format in favour =
of plain text? It makes harder for me (and others) to reply in a proper =
way.

  Thanks,=20

  Goncalo, Gregor, Bob, Danny.=20

  I'll try out the ideas suggested and revert with my results.=20

  Looking forward to more replies on some of the other topics not =
mentioned, if anyone has any ideas about them..=20

  Goncalo - a question - does the standard Python binary distribution (I =
have ActivePython 2.2.1 on Windows 98 and the Python 2.2 that comes with =
Red Hat 7.3 on Linux) - have all/most of the source for the std. lib. or =
do I have to download something else separately ? I do see a lot of .py =
files under the Lib directory, but since I'm new to Python, I don't know =
if they include all of the std. lib. - or if there is a formal concept =
of "std. lib." as there is in C, for instance.  Anyway, I do have a lot =
of .py files there, and I'll read thru them for lambda examples. Thanks =
for the tip.=20
