I am using parellel03.py downloaded straight from the tiki.

el is an empty (or length-1) string, such that there exists no el[1]
(which refers to the second item; sequences in Python start at element 0).

I'd need to inspect the program's state (or at least look at the source)
to say more. For the former purpose, Python includes a debugger, pdb; as
for the latter, I'll poke at it tomorrow afternoon if this issue hasn't
been independently figured out before that point.

Which version of Parallel is this? I did a port a while back intended to
run unchanged on Windows or Linux with dependencies less onerous (to me)
than the upstream one, but I don't even know where to download it now.
If you could point me at what you're using, that'll improve my ability
to help.
