reply me immediately it i surgent. This sounds like you are demanding that I solve your problem. That is
rude. Replying to you instead of to the group only helps you instead of
helping everybody else who has this problem. That is also rude.
Expressing that your problem is more important than other problems
because it is urgent, is rude. Furthermore, if it is urgent, you
probably have a client which is in a hurry. That implies that you are
making money. If you are making money and we are not, asking us to
solve your problem is even more rude.

Take a chill pill, man!

As you've taken the time to point out the errors in the OP's request and
how rude it is, maybe you should have taken the time time to read that
they wrote "reply me" rather than "email me" or "send me a reply" and
realised that maybe the OP's not fluent in English and given him a degree
of latitude in his phrasing.

Maybe you could have even given him the benefit of the doubt, that he's
translated his native tongue in to English and some of the polite
subtleties have been lost along the way.

To the OP: another way is to use the wv* tools, which are available on
Linux and Windows.

Cheers,
Andy

python: ascii read

by: Sebastian Krause | last post by:

Hello, I tried to read in some large ascii files (200MB-2GB) in Python using scipy.io.read_array, but it did not work as I expected. The whole idea was to find a fast Python routine to read in arbitrary ascii files, to replace Yorick (which I use right now and which is really fast, but not as general as Python). The problem with scipy.io.read_array was, that it is really slow, returns errors when trying to process large files and it...

How to read UTF-8 text files?

by: Zephyre | last post by:

I have some UTF-8 text files written in Chinese to be read. Now the only method that I know to read text from it is to use fopen() function. Thus, I must read the contents byte by byte, change the UTF-8 characters to Unicode, store the characters into wchar_t variables. But I think this method is too complex and isn't elegant at all. Are there any ways to read the UTF-8 text files as simple and convenient as the way that we read ANSI...

Anything available that can read Microsoft .MDB files from Python?

by: John Nagle | last post by:

I'm looking for something that can read .MDB files, the format Microsoft Access uses, from Python. I need to do this on Linux, without using Microsoft tools. I just need to read the files once, so I can load the tables into another database. Speed isn't an issue, and I don't need to access the file in database fashion. The files are too big to read into RAM all at once, though. I tried "MDBtools", but the only (last) release was a...
