Re: Still some more problems using python module

I fixed the python module "client.py" to accept the concatentated label 
and index, because from the source code you can tell this was allowable. 
It was a regular expression error that only allowed one digit instead of 
multiple digits.

I'll try and submit  a patch.

I note that you are taking the returned get value, which appears, from the code you sent, to return a string, and are passing it back to set, declared as an integer.  You may want to add 0 to it before doing it, just to ensure that it can be accepted as an integer.
