win32com.client & OS X

Hi All,

I'd like to know if it is possible to call the win32com.client
component using Python on MAC OS X (or maybe Linux) and, if so, how?

Cheers,
Neil

OS X doesn't really do COM; it's mostly Apple events at the desktop
level. See <http://appscript.sourc eforge.netfor a Python-AE bridge.
If you want more detailed advice, give some info about what you want to
do.

Hello, I've installed Python 2.4 and the win32 extensions, using administrator rights, under Windows XP in "C:\Programme". As this is a directory without spaces I didn't expect any problems. But now I can't _use_ win32com as a normal user, because normal users can't write there: PythonWin 2.4.1 (#65, Mar 30 2005, 09:13:57) on win32.

Hi there, I am trying to launch a program called AmiBroker using the command: AB = win32com.client.Dispatch("Broker.Application") However, I have a dual-core CPU and would like to launch two instances of AmiBroker. I know it is possible to run two instances simultaneously since it is easy to do manually by double-clicking the AmiBroker.exe file twice. However, when I write two lines of code like this:

I had to root around to discover CdoDefaultFolderContacts (though it was guessable; how could I enumerate win32com.client.constants?). I now want to work through the Contacts in Outlook patching in...

I'm curious as to why the difference between IDLE and pythonWin when using win32com. opening an excel file, i've attempted to grab the chart information out of the file. commands like co = ChartObjects(1) works in pythonWin but doesn't work in IDLE. however, on both co = chartobjects(1) works just fine.

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...
