  I'm in a similar position -- my python skills are mediocre and I was
hoping to learn more by working with pmask.  I've installed the
current omde/pmask and was working my way through the online tutorial
at http://pythonsound.sourceforge.net/guide/book1.html
  It was going well until I got to the the ramping feature page
(http://pythonsound.sourceforge.net/guide/x193.html).  When I try to
enter the commands as per that page, I get the following error (from
command line python interpreter):

>>> from pmask.bpf import LinearSegment
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named bpf

  Also, I notcied that when I use IDLE (v1.1.1), I can't even import pmask:

>>> import pmask

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in -toplevel-
    import pmask
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\omde\pmask.py", line 27, in -toplevel-
    from omde.csound import I, IFactory
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\omde\csound.py", line 410, in -toplevel-
    stdout = File(sys.stdout)
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\omde\csound.py", line 379, in __init__
    self.file = open(file_or_filename, 'w')
TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, instance found


  I'm using Python 2.4.1 on Windows XP Pro.  Can anyone help?
