you might want something like Expect.
check out the pexpect module:

yes, you can use "urllib2".
from the urllib2 docs:

variables"
So if you have a proxy setup, it should detect it from your

Another vote Matplotlib. It has impressive graphing/plotting
capabilities and is used as a Python module/library.

true.. I didn't think of that. I was assuming the client machine
wasn't resource constrained. That would definitely lead to inaccurate
timings if that was the case.

I tested with Windows XP and Python 2.5.4. I don't have a 2.4 setup I
can easily test with.
you can try httplib rather than urllib2. httplib is slightly lower

you aren't doing a read(), so technically you are just connecting to
the web server and sending the request but never reading the content
back from the socket. So your timing wouldn't be accurate.
try this instead:

+1 Matplotlib.
It's a very nice module with impressive graphing/charting/plotting
capabilities.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "screen capture". But the
webbrowser module in the standard lib might be of some help. You can
use it to drive a web browser from Python.
to load a page in your browser, you can do something

I think like this:
opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPHandler(debuglevel=1))

Tim, Mark,
this is great news.. thanks for tracking 3.x so closely. I big
barrier for me to eventually adopt 3.x is the ability to use pywin32.
thanks!

os.fork is not cross platform. It is *nix only. Subprocess runs on
Windows also. The OP never specified his platform.

I liked Tk a lot, but also moved to wx because of Tk's L&F. Tk is
great for simple tool interfaces. Great news.

now that I think of it, if it is only 3 headers, I can just override
them explicitly from urllib2 and then log that.
thanks a lot for looking into the httplib source!

those are exactly the headers I want to capture.
do you know how to get a hold of them from a request using urllib2.

yes, that method only shows you all the headers added by urllib2.
there are other headers that are produced by httplib under the covers
that are added to the outgoing
I have a Python web client that uses urllib2. It is easy enough to
add my own HTTP headers to the outgoing requests. I just create a
dictionary of the headers I want to add, and pass it to the Request
initializer.
These custom headers are not all that gets sent. urllib2 attaches
headers also. Y
