This script mimics rsync which is available for the unix platform and have been ported to win32 one. It is a sort of advanced version of xcopy. Its aim is to selectively synchronize folders. More precisely it copy selective parts of a folder to a destination folder and in addition can remove parts of the destination folder that do not correspond to parts of the original folder. I like its capability to avoid copying files through the .cvsignore mechanism or the pattern matching mechanism and its capability to delete files that are no longer relevant, not to mention that because it's a python script anyone can easily fix or improve it as he whish.

import win32api import win32com.client shell = win32com.client.Dispatch("WScript.Shell") shell.Run("calc") win32api.Sleep(100) shell.AppActivate("Calculator") win32api.Sleep(100) shell.SendKeys("1{+}") win32api.Sleep(500) shell.SendKeys("2") win32api.Sleep(500) shell.SendKeys("~") # ~ is the same as {ENTER} win32api.Sleep(500) shell.SendKeys("*3") win32api.Sleep(500) shell.SendKeys("~") win32api.Sleep(2500)

It is designed to be usable as everdays' quick and dirty editor as well as being usable as a professional project management tool integrating many advanced features Python offers the professional coder.

Python threads - a first example If you have a process that you want to do several things at the same time, threads may be the answer for you. They let you set up a series of processes (or sub-processes) each of which can be run independently, but which can be brought back together later and/or co-ordinated as they run

So here is my own personal gentle introduction to using pdb. It assumes that you are not using any IDE -- that you're coding Python with a text editor and running your Python programs from the command line.
