COM *is* the straightforward way, that is what COM is for. If you can't use COM you have to go through the far less reliable route of "screen scraping" the GUI. This involves passing windows messages to the target application to simulate user events. Look at the PostMessage function in the Win32 API (Check it on MSDN) as an example. Getting data back out can be even more tricky unless you can get the "handle" of the widgets concerned. That can usually be done with a combination of FindWindow() and GetChildWindows() calls You can access the API functions via ctypes. But COM is actually easier in most cases Windows was not designed for scripting! Thats why DDE/OLE/COM was developed.

Yes, don't go too far. Matching addresses is a fantastically difficult thing to do perfectly. There are several companies whose only product is software to match and check addresses and they sell it for hundreds of thousands of dollars a license! They spend years developing and improving it. Our suppllier is up to version 16 and they only release new versions every 2 years... Of course they are matching formats from countries around the world and providing GUI management consoles and MIS reports etc etc. But the core function of correctly identifying valid addresses remains a hugely complex task.

Yes, the time module in the standard library has sleep(x), where x is
in seconds.
The Python Library Reference, section 14.2, goes into a bit more detail.

Unfortunately sleep blocks the program so you may need to wrap it
in a thread to launch the required function at the required time
without blocking the main program.
There probably is a third party module that will do this but I don't
know of any.
If its within a GUI context then I think both Tkinter and wxPython
have timer facilities although I've never used them.

If you need to run the functions concurrently, use threads. Else you can setup a simple signal-handler for SIGALRM and set the time accordingly: import signal def setup_signal(): # Wait 5 seconds before alarming signal.alarm(5) signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, signal_handler) def signal_handler(signum, frame): print "I got an alarm!" # need to resetup the signal setup_signal() setup_signal() # A pointless loop for x in xrange(5): if (x % 10) == 0: print x -- - Rikard - http://bos.hack.org/cv/ ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

No. Assignment in Python is a statement, not an expression. It does not
have a value and it can't be used in a conditional. Use
m=regex.search('some long string')
if (m):
print m.groups()

[Tutor] using python to execute from Dir A in Dir B
Hi All,
lets say I am in Dir A (out of my control because I have submitted a
job to a queuing system)
and I have a python script which is running in this directory - the
one I submitted to the queue
what I need to do is have my python script run another executable,
but it must do it from a directory different from the one I am in, it
needs to run in the /scratch/ directory (again not my choice)
Is this possible, and is it easy?
the way I have been using python to run other executables is
os.system('path/my.executable input')
but this dumps the output in the directory I am currently in, and not
the directory the my.executable lives in - I am hoping there is a
simple way to tell python to run the executable in its directory, and
have its output live there as well.
If I were using CSH, I could do all this very simply by having these
lines in my script
### .csh file
cd /scratch
my_exe.csh
I am hoping this idea makes sense and is simple with python...
Thanks,
Andre

Have a look at the subprocess module. You should be able to do
something like:
subprocess.Popen(['path/my.executable'], cwd='path')
I am not sure of the actual keyword to be used, so please look at the

[Tutor] random number generator
Hello,
I am writing a little program to test a theory and as part of teaching
myself Python. I've only been at this about a week now. I have a
program that "should" work but doesn't. It generates a random number
between 1 and 2 out to 10 decimal places. I think there is something
wrong with how my random number is generated or defined or how my
guesses are defined. I added a line to tell me what the random number
is and then if I enter it as a guess it doesn't match and exit the
loop. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Here is a sample output:
---
I'm thinking out to 10 decimal places. Good luck.
1.14981949962
Make a guess: 1.14981949962
Higher...
Make another guess: 1.14981949963
Lower...
1.14981949963
Make another guess:

Here is my code:
---
# Number guessing game
#
# The computer will choose a number between 1 and 2 (to ten decimal places)
# and the player will try to guess the number. The program will tell the
# player the number is either higher or lower than the number they guessed.
import random
import os
os.system("clear")
print "\nWelcome to 'Guess My Number'!"
print "\nI'm thinking of a number between 1 and 2."
print "\nYes, that's right. Between 1 and 2."
print "\nYou have heard of decimals right? Well, I'm"
print "\nthinking out to 10 decimal places. Good luck.\n"
# set random value
random.seed()
number = random.random() + 1
print number
guess = float(raw_input("Make a guess: "))
tries = 1
# the guess loop
while (guess != number):
if (guess > number):
print "Lower..."
else:
print "Higher..."
guess = float(raw_input("Make another guess: "))
tries += 1
print "Congratulations! You guessed my number! The number was", number
print "It took you only", tries, "tries!\n"

Re: [Tutor] using python to execute from Dir A in Dir B
Thank you everyone for the help. I have two solutions, but I would
love one that uses the subprocess.Popen() - I have no experience with
this module.class - if someone with more experience would feel
inclined to provide an example, I would be very much appreciative.
SOLUTION 1 (my brute force method)
create a csh file which does what I want,
# filename: hack.csh
#!/bin/csh
set RUN_DIR = $1
set EXEC_DIR = $2
cd ${RUN_DIR}
${EXEC_DIR}/my.exe
#
then I call this in my python code from some arbitrary directory
# python script...
os.system('./hack.csh /scratch exec_dir')
#
SOLUTION 2 (courtesy of my computer-superhero friend - again simple)
in my python script...
#
import os
curdir = os.path.abspath('.') # in case I need to get back to
where I am - in my case no
os.chdir('RUN_DIR') # in my case RUN_DIR = /scratch
if I wanted to get back to my old directory - then add
os.chdir(curdir)
#
so both of these methods are sort of brute force - being completely
unfamiliar with the subprocess module, again is someone would like to
provide an example, or at least more hints than
'you should use subprocess.Popen()'
I thank you in advance.
Cheers,
Andre

I'm no Python wizard, I'm still learning myself. But I think you need

if guess == number:

No, he's got the equivalent function in his while statement: while (guess != number): The idea is to stay in the loop as long as they're UNequal, and then drop out to the "Congratulations" part.
