Assignment #2 Extra Comments
1. As mentioned in a comment, xemacs is a good, if not better alternative to emacs.
2. A good way to print your code is to use a2ps:
a2ps -Php mycode.py
Do a "man a2ps" to see the options available.
3. If you want a free Unix-type environment for Windows, look into Cygwin. You have the option of installing an X-server, so that you can run xemacs and xterm's remotely on your desktop.
4. Chris has installed pychecker. Use it for debugging your code.
(It looks like version 8.11 is installed, which gives spurious warning messages when converting strings to int. So pychecker may not be that useful until we get 8.14 installed).
