Re: request for guidance
I read 'Beginning Python 2.6 and 3.1' by James Payne. It was pretty good. Code Academy has a python course. http://www.codecademy.com/tracks/python I've never done it but it might be good Cheers, V.I.

Re: Static Website Generator
I'll second Nikola (full disclosure: not affiliated) It's easy to get started and the documentation is pretty good. Mako (the themeing language) is good to know as it, or something extremely similar, is used elsewhere. And Nikola is python! I found the tutorial at http://shisaa.jp/postset/nikola-web.html to be quite helpful my first time but it seems to be down at the moment Another generator I've used and found quite good is Hakyll. Designed after Jakyll but in Haskell instead. My Haskell isn't great however so if I needed to add some new functionality it would often take a long time (which isn't always ideal) V.I.

Re: better and user friendly IDE recommended?
Is this thread going to evolve into your classic vim vs. emacs, sweet! Also, Paul is completely right. V.I.

That's a big if. If you expect to spend a lot of time editing text, code, etc. over the next few years then it's definitely learning at least one of vim or emacs to a reasonable degree of competency. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Reading from stdin first, then use curses
I'd like to bump this. I asked a similar question a few weeks ago and had no reply. Here's my question: I'm fairly new to python and even newer to curses. Does any one have a good solution for how to embed the output of a subprocess (ex. subprocess.Popen(htop, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)) into an ncurses window? So for example, the terminal window is broken up into quadrants and the top right has htop running inside. I'd imagine this would involve some kind of terminal emulation as the dimensions of the window would need to be queried by htop. If anyone could please point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful Thanks, Ignotus On 08/31/2013 04:31 AM, Timo Schmiade wrote: Hi again, sorry for replying to my own mail, but is there really no solution?

You can find the first draft here: https://github.com/the-isz/pyurlview When I call it with an email file passed to the '-f' argument, it does pretty much what I want already. However, I intend to use it in mutt, which pipes the message to the program like so: macro pager \cu pipe-entry'pyurlview.py'enter 'Follow links with pyurlview' The problem is rather obvious but - unfortunately - not so easy to solve: * The program reads the mail from stdin * The terminal in which it runs is a pseudo-terminal (pipe) * curses is not able to accept user input from the pseudo-terminal The question is: How do I read from stdin first and afterwards allow curses to read user input?

Re: Python 3 and SSH Tunnel
I think I missed an earlier thread of this and I'm not quite sure what your application is, but properly allocating user permissions on your databases should eliminate any security concerns there. Also, for the tunnel, whether you're using one account or multiple (one for each user), those accounts should be properly secured as well. Ignotus On 08/10/2013 06:39 AM, D. Xenakis wrote: What about the security though? To be specific, i need to create an application (python 3.3 strictly) where users will save/load their settings online to a remote hosted database. I do not wish to change the database from listening to any other thing than localhost for security reasons, so i assume the best solution for me would be to make the program create some ssh tunnels before the saving/loading happens. But would this policy make my database (or the rest of the databases that im running on that machine) unsecure? Is there any workaround this? How would you do that online saving/loading? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
