This code uses the print function, which you can get in python 2.6 if the first
line has the future import for it:
from __future__ import print_function

The exception syntax using the "as" keyword is new in python 2.6, as well.

It looks like the code was written in python 3, though, which would be rather
typical of purpleposeidon.
