lucky). So I will pursue all three types of changing color.
First I will try WConio, next to be followed by EasyGUI,
EasyGUI won;t help change colour, it is just a way of making
a command line script act like a GUI - by popping up dialog
boxes to capture input and dsplay messages. It replaces
raw_input and print with dialogs.
--------code--------
from WConio import textcolor
apples_left = 5
print "There are",(textcolor(4)),apples_left,(textcolor(7)),"left in the
basket."
---------------------
The output works, but there is one snag. I think that I am leaving
something out because it has the word "None" on both sides of the
variable.
The textcolor() function returns None. so you need to keep it
out of your print statement:. This means you need to split your
print into multiple separate statements. (This will also be true
for the pywin32 version)
print "There are",
textcolor(4)
print apples_left,
textcolor(7)
print "left in the basket."
The way I'd handle thus is to create a function which takes a
list of tuples as input, with each tuple containing the string
and its colour:
def colorPrint(strings):
for string in strings:
textcolor(string[1])
print string[0],
colorPrint([("There are", 0),(str(apples_left),4),("left in the
basket.",7),("\n",0)
