Hah, remind me to the old day hooking up mplayer with python. Here discussion on GUI toolkit at python.my - http://groups.google.com/group/pythonmy/browse_thread/thread/2d08e8713ca6300d/10b251a0a2381539 Sorry, while I would like to do some run through, don't have much time. It's already late now, supposed to be at home. ;)

Then inside the button click handler, you can execute the external program, maybe using os.system or some other std lib. Now you come to the interesting part, if the external program output is just a text, it easy. What about something that output a video such as mplayer ? But really, get your hello world with some button up first. You can use tkinter, it's already in python. -- Join Open Source Developers Club Malaysia http://www.osdc.my/ Facebook Fan page http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=98685301577 http://www.facebook.com/OSDC.my You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OSDC.my Mailing List" group.
