Graphing capablility in Mac Python
by Anthony M. Ingraldi Aug. 23, 1998

Aug. 23, 1998

Hello, Is there a module available that will provide routines for creating simple line graphs and scatter plots? I was thinking of using AppleEvents to send data to KaleidaGraph or some other package but that seems sluggish. Another alternative would be to use a Canvas widget from Tk. I would prefer to use a module designed specifically for plotting rather than writing one via Tkinter. -- Tony Ingraldi | e-mail: A.M.INGRALDI(a)LaRC.NASA.GOV NASA Langley Research Center | Mail Stop 267 | Phone : (757) 864-3039 Hampton, VA 23681-0001 | Fax : (757) 864-7892 _______________ PYTHONMAC-SIG - SIG on Python for the Apple Macintosh send messages to: pythonmac-sig(a)python.org administrivia to: pythonmac-sig-request(a)python.org _______________

German Umlauts and HTML
by kantel＠mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de Nov. 24, 1997

Nov. 24, 1997

I have written a little Python-Scripts to generate automatically HTML-pages from a database (FielMaker). But it's a german database and it includes German Umlauts. I wonder if someone has written a modul for converting umlauts to HTML-code. I can wirte it with a lot of if ... then ... else ... code by myself but I think it's more a Job for the grep-module (but I haven't work with grep until now). Thanks for every help (and excuse my poor english).

Re: [PYTHONMAC-SIG] CGI return size limit
by schochet Nov. 20, 1997

Nov. 20, 1997

I think the AE interface only lets you send 32k at a time. The sdoc event handler should return the string <SEND_PARTIAL> to WebStar and it will keep the connection open and expect more data to arrive. -Ben S.

CGI return size limit
by Tasselli Marco Nov. 20, 1997

Nov. 20, 1997

Hi all, I'm using Python with success for building CGI scripts on the Mac. I have, however, a problem with the classic >32K size limit when returning big chunks of info. How can I send more than 32K to a browser as a result of a CGI program?

MAcPython support video digitizers (AV Macs?)

Does Python for the Mac provide any support for grabbing video frames on an AV capable Mac? (other than direct calls to calldll...)

maccgi-module-publisher
by Jeffrey P Shell Nov. 17, 1997

Nov. 17, 1997

I've been wanting to do this for a while, but now I might actually have the time and motivation. It would be a very good thing, I think, to bring Bobo to the Mac. Bobo code is some of the most portable CGI code since the CGI Module publisher takes care of many of the nitty-gritty system interface and publishing details. Bobo would also work well with the Mac since most Mac CGI applications are a long-running process. When the first MacCGI support for MacPython came out, it was stated that an effort would need to be made to make it more coherent with UNIX (like the environment variables for instance). Has there been any effort on this? The CGI Module Publisher can easily convert Mac CGI variables to the more common Unix-ish ones. -- "Green Tony squeeled and I'm off to Galaxy X" .jPS jeff(a)Digicool.com Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com/ _______________ PYTHONMAC-SIG - SIG on Python for the Apple Macintosh send messages to: pythonmac-sig(a)python.org administrivia to: pythonmac-sig-request(a)python.org _______________

Nov. 12, 1997

Hello, P Please, help us with our problem :) !!! We downloaded source code for ADPCM compresser-decompresser. When we compiled him , he didn't work properly (at all ). We need it for PC, to decompress ADPCM G.721 format file to any Windows/W95 readable format for sound files. Can You provide us compiled and tested version and source code of that version, which can do that for us and it isn't sharware or something like that. Please ....

waiting for events?
by Ron Cohen Nov. 11, 1997

Nov. 11, 1997

If I have python and various other applications open on my Mac, and I execute a loop with printing in Python, I find that Python waits periodically to look for events, like mouse motions. In particular for a simple thing like: for i in range(100): for j in range(50): printj=j print i,printj the execution (printing) slows down and may even come to a hault part way through if I don't do something like wiggle the mouse. The situation is even more dramatic if I click on another application's window to make it active. Can someone explain what is going on and if there is a way to fix this? I am running Python 1.4 on a powerbook 5300, OS 8, but I have observed this with 1.4 running on other macs as well; I have no experience with other versions of Python.
