I'd like to be able to track which application is currently focused on my X11 display from Python. The intent is to tie it into a timetracking tool so that I can keep track of how much time I spend being unproductive. I already found this code at http://thpinfo.com/2007/09/x11-idle-time-and-focused-window-in.html: import Xlib.display d...

This application might be used over very unreliable networks where latencies could be low and dropped packets and network timeouts might be very common. Is is possible to override a part of the urllib2 module so that each request is retried an X number of times ...

Hello people, This probably has an obvious answer, but I'm a beginner. I've got a "module" (really just a file with a bunch of functions I often use) at the beginning of which I import a number of other modules. Because I work on many systems, however, not all modules may be able to load on any particular machine. To make things slig...

I understand how both __init__ and __new__ work. I'm wondering if there is anything __init__ can do that __new__ cannot? i.e. can use of __init__ be replaced by the following pattern: class MySubclass(object): def __new__(cls, *args, **kwargs): self = super(MySubclass, cls).__new__(cls, *args, **kwargs) // Do __init...
I am using Eclipse 3.5.1 with PyDev 1.5.5 an Mac OS X 10.6.4 (Python 2.6.1). When using a type or function I have not imported yet, I usually write the code that uses it first, and then use quickfix to make PyDev import the necessary modules. However, it often makes weird suggestions here. For instance when I have the function itemgetter...
