Use python to execute a windows program

Dear list: My question is conceptual at the moment. Current problem: I have a windows-based program that reads in a file and from that file generates data that is saved to a file. The way we do this now is a person sits in front of their machine and proceeds as follows: 1) Open windows program

Making Windows Larger in Tkinter

Thanks to some help I received on list the other day, I now have a very nice windows-based application that implements multiple programs. This is a very powerful tool. Now I am working to make this window pretty. One problem I cannot find help on is how to make the windows a certain size. For examp

Learning Tkinter

I am currently reading An Intro to Tkinter (1999) by F. Lundh. This doc was published in 1999 and I wonder if there is a more recent version. I've googled a bit and this version is the one I keep finding. I like how this document is organized and also how it provides the code with visuals of what s

Process multiple files

Say I have multiple text files in a single directory, for illustration they are called "spam.txt" and "eggs.txt". All of these text files are organized in exactly the same way. I have written a program that parses each file one at a time. In other words, I need to run my program each time I want to

Elementtree to parse xml

I received some help on list with sample code on how to parse through an xml file using element tree. I now have this working using toy examples nicely. However, when I work to apply this to my actual xml file, I am hitting a roadblock. Is anyone on the list able to look at an xml file that I can

Python and xml

I am a python neophyte who has used python to parse through text files using basic functions and no OOP experience. I have a need to process some xml files and from what I am now reading python is the exact tool I need to work through this issue. However, as I read online docs and peruse which

Checking if elements are empty

Dear list: Suppose I have a string as follows x = ' \t'ff' I can split this up as y = x.split('\t') Which gives [ ' ', 'ff'] len(y) 2 Is there a way to check if the first element of y is null? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Output to csv

I've hacked together a small utility program that I assume can be written much better. The program reads in output from a statistical program and spits out the relevant data needed. The purpose of the program is to reach into the original data file (which is a text file), pull out the relevant info

RE: Wow, Python much faster than MatLab

R is the open-source implementation of the S language developed at Bell laboratories. It is a statistical programming language that is becoming the de facto standard among statisticians. Rpy is what allows an interface between python and the R language. Harold > -Original Message- > From

Beginner question on text processing

I am beginning to use python primarily to organize data into formats needed for input into some statistical packages. I do not have much programming experience outside of LaTeX and R, so some of this is a bit new. I am attempting to write a program that reads in a text file that contains some value

Generating text files (newbie)

Assume I have a tab-delimited text file called foo.txt organized as follows: x11 -0.04 x22 -0.42 x33 0.3 My goal is to read in this file and use the information therein to output a new file that is organized as follows: x11 IRM=3PL IPB= -0.04 x22 IRM=3PL IPB= -0.
