Re: access the text being generated in other windows
yeah, someone else mentioned getting the window's handle (can use spyxx.exe for this) and then using hooks... but i'm not sure where to go to learn about using window hooks, in python (or in general, actually)... is this 'downright dirty screen scraping'? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
access the text being generated in other windows
hi, newbie question here i play poker on partypoker and ultimate bet (both of which have clients you have to download)... i was thinking of writing a program that used the hand histories these clients generate (in little text boxes within the client) is there a way python can access the text being generated in other windows, by other programs/processes? ultimatehistory.exe is an example of what i'm talking about (written in C++, i think)... it takes the text output that ultimate bet's client generates, and saves it to disk... i would like to do something similar. cheers (i'm running python 2.4 on winxp sp2 home edition) -- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
