We can't tell if that is just a transcription error on your part. I'd be a bit discouraged by this page: http://appscript.sourceforge.net/ which says rather loudly: Please note that appscript is no longer developed or supported, and its use is not recommended for new projects. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] Import error, no module named app script
Hi guys, So I recently begun using Mac to program in python. For one of the modules I am going to be using, it calls app script in order to send commands to voiceover, which is a screen reader for the MAC. The only problem is, it gives an error about no module named appscript. Indeed, when I go into the python command and try import appscript, it says no module named appscript. I tried pip install apscript, but it said requirement already satissfied. Hoping someone can help.

Thank you for all of your responses to:

Presumably the lines above ar in a separate file called Student.py?
And the lines below are in another file called app.py?
If so thats a good start.
Steve (and others have already pointed out the need for a space after
def (otherwise python looks for a function called def__init__() and
wonderswhy yu have a colon after its invocation)
But that will only lead you to the next error.
import Student
student1 = Student('Jim', 'Business', 3.1, False)
When accessing an object in an imported module you must precede
the object's name with the module:
student1 = Student.Student() # Student class in the Student module
Alternatively you can explicitly import the Student class (and nothing
else!) from Student with:
from Student import Student
I which case you can use it as you do in your code.
In your case it doesn't really matter which of the two styles
you choose. In more complex programs explicit module naming
might make your code clearer (eg. if you have many modules).
Alternatively, pulling in the specific object might save
you some typing if you reference the object several times.
You need to choose which is most appropriate based on your code.

So far as the button images go a Google search should throw up lots of free icons you can use and a program like ImageMagick can resize and change format as needed. As for assigning them its trivial: bmps = "/path/to/your/images/" bUp = tk.Button(parent, image=bmps+"up.bmp", command=doUp) HTH Alan G. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

The short answer is no. But you can assign any bitmap image to a button. (You can use other formats too but bitmaps are easiest in my experience!) But putting an image on the button does not give it any functionality. You need to program that yourself.
