You can't really do that using NSMovieView without dropping down to
the C-level Quicktime routines (maybe there is a python wrapper for
these, but if so it is not documented).
If you are running on Tiger (10.4) you can use the Quicktime (QTKit)
framework, which has much more control over the

I'm trying to set up a "simplest thing that could possibly work" for

I want to be able to periodically send data to a running program,

but just discovered that NSSocketPort is not a raw socket, but only
intended to talk to other NSPort instances. Surely I'm not the only

Yeah, I know, I was only listing methods that I'd actually consider

This is very interesting. I thought the basic choices for wrapping C
functions were:
* Pyrex
* ctypes
* Write Obj-C and import with PyObjC

Bob, your packages were the first place I checked, but I checked for

Hi folks,
Has anyone installed twisted 2.0 on Tiger?
I don't think I've ever had trouble building Twisted before, but now
they've made it dependent on Zope Interfaces, which won't build for me.
I'm running OS 10.4, Bob's Python 2.4, latest svn of PyObjC and
py2app. Here's the traceback I'm g

OK, thanks. At least I know to give up that route and try anoth
Let me try to rephrase my question.
I have a framework which I can't import into PyObjC in the usual
way. Since then I've tried various other frameworks I've found on my
system, mostly embedded in application bundles, and some import but
others do not. I'm not getting any information on *w
