This directory contains various demonstrations of what you can do withPython.  They were all written by me except where explicitly statedotherwise -- in general, demos contributed by others ends up in the../Contrib directory, unless I think they're of utmost generalimportance (like Matt Conway's Tk demos). A fair number of utilities that are useful when while developingPython code can be found in the ../Tools directory -- some of thesecan also be considered good examples of how to write Python code. Finally, in order to save disk space and net bandwidth, not allsubdirectories listed here are distributed.  They are listed justin case I change my mind about them.  cgi             CGI examples (see also ../Tools/faqwiz/.) classes		Some examples of how to use classes. comparisons	A set of responses to a really old language-comparison		challenge. curses		A set of curses demos. embed		An example of embedding Python in another application		(see also pysvr). imputil		Demonstration subclasses of imputil.Importer. md5test		Test program for the optional md5 module. metaclasses	The code from the 1.5 metaclasses paper on the web. parser		Example using the parser module. pdist		Old, unfinished code messing with CVS, RCS and remote		files. pysvr		An example of embedding Python in a threaded		application. rpc		A set of classes for building clients and servers for		Sun RPC. scripts		Some useful Python scripts that I put in my bin		directory.  No optional built-in modules needed. sockets		Examples for the new built-in module 'socket'. threads		Demos that use the 'thread' module.  (Currently these		only run on SGIs, but this may change in the future.) tix		Demos using the Tix widget set addition to Tkinter. tkinter		Demos using the Tk interface (including Matt Conway's		excellent set of demos). xml		Some XML demos. zlib		Some demos for the zlib module (see also the standard		library module gzip.py).
