I, like pete had a hard time with the name of the library till I 
decided  not  to worry about insulting the author
and call it pig's ear ,thing.But I also think that it is heading towards 
an exellent learning kit.I would like to see
long, see spot run, type of documentation for special ed programmers 
like me.My experience has been that though python can be an excellent 
begginers language, there are not enough real beginners docs. I keep at 
it though and its clicking  slowly but surely.
