Need help calling a proprietary C DLL from Python

I use a proprietary dll from Software Source (vbis5032.dll). I have successfully used it from Visual Basic 6, Fujitsu Cobol and from Perl. I would now like to use it from Python. The following is the C++ prototype for one of the functions: short FAR PASCAL VmxOpen(BSTR*Filespec,

Re: forkpty not working?

If you google a bit, I believe you'll find one or more python modules for working with ssh. Also, if you want to roll your own, the easiest way to get around the password requirement is to use ssh passwordless authentication using DSA or RSA public/private keypairs: http://stromberg.dnsalias.

Issues with XMLTreeBuilder in cElementTree and ElementTree

I had some xmls being output by an application whose formating did not allow for easy editing by humans so I was trying to write a short python app to pretty print xml files. Most of the data in these xml files is in the attributes so I wanted each attribute on its own line. I wrote a short app usi

Floating-point support

Would anyone know as to how to develop floating point support for the MyHDL module? Has anyone worked with any alternative versions of the IEEE standard for floating -point? Also, has anyone developed a floating-point library for a module within the python environment in order to execute numerica

Re: Removal of tkinter from python 3.0? [was: Fate of the repr module inPy3.0]

I would really hate to see Tkinter removed from 3.0. Because it's part of the distribution and extremely easy to create simple GUIs I use it all the time. Isn't Python supposed to be a "Batteries Included" language? Can that be said anymore without a GUI library? And do we want to drop Tkint

Haskell vs ??

Just to help clear up my own understanding of this discussion, this is basically a language that obfuscates details and makes low-level decisions in a "average-best" way, and thus allows for lazy people to write kind of decent code quickly? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
