Hello,
I'm trying to read the output from a WinXP console application using
PythonWin -- that is, I start the application as a child process, and I
want to be able to read the ASCII text in the application's screen.
The child app uses MSDN functions WriteConsoleOutputChar() and
WriteConsoleOutputAttributes() for output. Thus I think I need to use
ReadConsoleOutput() and WriteConsoleInput() to communicate with it, as
described here:
http://homepages.tesco.net/~J.deBoynePollard/FGA/capture-console-win32.html
. Unfortunately these don't seem to be implemented in PyWin32.
Does anyone know if there's a way to do this? I'm new at this, so my
apologies if the question is basic or misguided, but I haven't found an
obvious solution in the archives or elsewhere.
Try console module from effbot or use ctypes.
