Hi, i'm using wxPython and wxTextStyled. How can I intercept document changes for active documents (for example modified with others external editors)? thanks in advance -- Alessandro Crugnola Flash | PHP Developer http://www.sephiroth.it

I'm experiencing what seems to be strange behaviour. I don't know if it's Pmw, Tkinter on Python. I have a button, defined in a Pmw.buttonbox, that I would like to configure to "sunken" after it has been clicked/released. Using the example style coding: self.buttonBox1.add('Add', command = self.addCalendar) the button remains "sunken"....

I have a problem. I have written a python based theme for a linux app called superkaramba, which is effectively an engine for desktop applets that utilises python as its theming language. The script basically parses weather websites, and displays the info in a visually appealing way. A couple of other people have contributed code to this...

Hello. Recently, Generator Comprehensions were mentioned again on python-list. I have written an implementation for the compiler module. To try it out, however, you must be able to rebuild Python from source, because it also requires a change to Grammar. 1. Edit Python-2.3/Grammar/Grammar and add an alternative to the "listmaker"...

The web-based Python software I've written thus far lacks a consistent approach to generating output. After reading Graham Fawcett's endorsement of Zope Template Pages in the recent web programming thread, I looked up TAL and found it to be quite nice. Going through recent postings on Google it seems SimpleTAL is the standalone TAL module in...

I am using Windows 98, python 2.3, ClientCookie 0.4.3a. When I do: import ClientCookie import os c = ClientCookie.MSIECookieJar(delayload=1) c.load_from_registry() I get the response: Traceback (most recent call last):

I have been playing around with ezPyCrypto. I generated and printed a key with >>> import ezPyCrypto >>> k = ezPyCrypto.key(2048) >>> print k.exportKey() I noticed there were a lot of N's and M's, too many to occur by chance s=k.exportKeyPrivate()

is the code below meant to produce rubbish?, i had expected an exception. f=file('readme.txt','w') f.write(' ') f.read() ( PythonWin 2.3 (#46, Jul 29 2003, 18:54:32) on win32. ) I got this while experimenting, trying to figure out the file objects modes,

I posted this few weeks ago (remember the C Sharp thread?) but it went unnoticed on the large mass of posts, so let me retry. Here I get Python+ Psyco twice as fast as optimized C, so I would like to now if something is wrong on my old laptop and if anybody can reproduce my results. Here are I my numbers for calling the error function a...

How can I pass the content of one varible into raw_input? See below for what I'm trying to do: XXX = raw_input("1. Enter the string that you'd like to find: ") y = raw_input("2. Enter the string that you'd like to replace XXX with: ") I'm trying to pass x into y. I tried the "Enter the string that you'd like to replace", XXX, "with:"...

Hi There, I installed python2.3 (configured with option --with-libs='lpthread -lcl'), and egenix-mx-base-2.0.5 on an HPUX B.11.11 machine. Everything seems to be OK. I can start python and import mx modules successfully. tnguyen@local_host:/users/denver/tnguyen 71 % python Python 2.3 (#1, Aug 26 2003, 16:06:40) on hp-ux11

I'm using urllib.urlopen() to retrieve data via ftp. I'm using Tkinter to display progress and so using a file even handler to read the data. My question is whether there's some easy way to do a nonblocking read? Here's a brief summary of the code: class ftpget: def __init__(self, url): self.bytesRead = 0

Hi, I've written a very simple 'kill-server' to help me shut down processes through Telnet or HTTP. The kill-server is a function and is launched as a thread. I use the module socket.py on Python v2.3 (Windows) I can use telnet host:port and enter the secret killword or use a broser with http://host:port/secret_killword The...

Hi I am a newbie and have a very simple python code, doing some calculations. maybe there is one already having a code snippet in wxPython for what I need: (i) simple dialog box, where the user can enter an integer. after closing the dialog I get this integer. nothing more (ii) similar for getting a file-name (with a file-dialog)

Is there a default value for PYTHONPATH ? I've installed Python on both Windows and Linux, and was surprised to see that this variable is empty. IS this normal ?

Hi, I'm trying to use Mark Hammond's win32clipboard module to extract more complex data than just plain ASCII text from the Windows clipboard. For instance, when you select all the content on web page, you can paste it into an app like Frontpage, or something Rich Text-aware, and it will preserve all the formatting, HTML, etc. I'd like to...

Hello Im having problem, wxTreeCtrl generate 3 x EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED on click item right button mouse. This problem only win32. Why? Simple example: from wxPython.wx import * class MyApp(wxApp): def OnInit(self):

I've built a small curses app with an IRC like interface (not for IRC tho). The last remaining item is to handle resizing the terminal on SIGWINCH. I've tried a few things and everything is failing. I first try to resize my root window using resize() but then my calls to resize other windows usually fail.. Whats the proper or common...

Hi, This is doubtless a really dumb question but is there an elegant way of reading numbers formatted as hex from a datgram? I get a datgram which contains values like this: ---DATAGRAM--- 2aef2d43etc... ---/DATAGRAM--

Hello, I'm trying to compile Python 2.3 on Solaris 8, but can't get _tkinter to work. I got errors about the ancient tcl/tk installed under /usr/local and installed an new one into the path where Python shall go. But now the install test after compilation fails with: *** WARNING: renaming "_tkinter" since importing it failed: ld.so.1:...

Hello all, I wrote the code below. It is simply a dictionary that uses regular expressions to match keys. A quick look at _test() will give you an example. Is there a module that already does this? Is there a way and would it be better to use list comprehension? (using python 2.3) Just looking for a better or more pythonic way to do...

Here's a proposed Q&A for the FAQ based on a couple recent threads. Appropriate comments appreciated X.Y: Why doesn't Python have macros like in Lisp or Scheme? Before answering that, a clarification on what 'macro' means. A Lisp macro is a way of modifying code when that code is first defined. It can rearrange the structure of the...
