| This directory contains various demonstrations of what you can do with | 
 | Python.  They were all written by me except where explicitly stated | 
 | otherwise -- in general, demos contributed by others ends up in the | 
 | ../Contrib directory, unless I think they're of utmost general | 
 | importance (like Matt Conway's Tk demos). | 
 |  | 
 | A fair number of utilities that are useful when while developing | 
 | Python code can be found in the ../Tools directory -- some of these | 
 | can also be considered good examples of how to write Python code. | 
 |  | 
 | Finally, in order to save disk space and net bandwidth, not all | 
 | subdirectories listed here are distributed.  They are listed just | 
 | in case I change my mind about them. |
