Handling file downloading with Randy Birch very nice code (http://vbnet.mvps.org/code/internet/ftpdofiledownload.htm) raises a second question: I my case, the user should not be allowed to change the save destination for the downloaded file. Does anyone know if it is possible to circumvent the save dialogbox, for example by hiding it, or by auto-clicking the save command button on the dialogbox closing the box with the destination path...

I'm trying to display a GIF image in a label as the central area to a Tkinter GUI. The image does not appear, though a space is made for it. Why is this so? I notice that I can display a GIF image in the central area of a simple menu-bar app as shown below in the first code sample. But, when I set up my app with a class, as shown below in the second code sample, the image disappears. How can I correct this? I'm sure the answer would...

I have an animated .gif on my website. It is about 36k. I want this on every page in my site, but it appears that it downloads every time a user loads a page. This will kill dial up users. Shouldn't I.E. pull this from Cache if it's there? Is there a way for me to set this image to not download on every page, but instead, use if from Temporary Internet Files on the users Cache? Thanks

Nobody answered last time. I guess they wanted me to give it a shot. Well, here is how I download the image (it's a class method): def download_image(self): web_download=self.opener.open(self.url) save=open("image.jpg","w") save.writelines(web_download.readlines()) save.close() web_download.close()

As many might know, windows allows to copy an image into the clipboard by pressing the "Print Screen" button on the keyboard. Is it possible to paste such an image from the clipboard into a "Text" widget in Tkinter? Here is my first attempt with just trying to print out the image data: ----------------- def pasteImg(tgt): global clipboardEnabled if not clipboardEnabled: return

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
