pyPortMidi is a Python wrapper I wrote for PortMidi. PortMidi is a cross-platform C library for realtime MIDI control. Using pyPortMidi, you can send and receive MIDI data in realtime from Python.

Robin, Give this a try: from IPython.Debugger import Tracer; debugger = Tracer() debugger() #add this line where you want to break barr

PyACTS- http://www.pyacts.org -- PyACTS is a collection of Python Modules that are very useful to Parallel Computing in a High Performance Computing environment. This packages incorporates several modules like PyBLACS (allows communication data for Linear Algebra), PyPBLAS (distributed Matrix Operations) and PyScaLAPACK (solve linear systems and get the eigenvalue problems). These libraries are part of PyACTS project that provide interfaces to the ACTS Collection. Also is provided a parrallel interpreter for using this package that implements message-based parallel programming using MPI.

Speech Recognition may be possible with COM. I found an example of how its done in Python.

Looks like foom is busy. Anyway, here is the verbatim translation of the script foom linked. I can't test it myself as no mike is installed on my machine. If you hear "Starting Succeeded", then, try to say one/two/three. NEED CoHelper.ahk.

Tired of debugging Python using print statements? Don't like the cumbersome PDB (Python debugger) console? Prefer using Vim for coding your Python programs? VimPdb is the solution - allows debugging Python in an IDE-fashion, right within the Vim editor.

UliPad uses Mixin and Plugin technique as its architecture. Most of its classes can be extended via mixin and plugin components, and finally become an integrity class when creating the instance. So UliPad is very dynamic. You can write the new features in new files, and hardly need to modify the existing code. And if you want to extend the existing classes, you could write mixins and plugins, and this will be bound to the target class that I call "Slot Class". This technique will make the changes centralized and easily managed.

he most popular cryptographic software for Windows is probably TrueCrypt. In this article I will explain how TrueCrypt works and as a by-product a working Python implementation will be provided. This article is written from a programmer perspective and the math will be kept to the minimum. The emphasis is on how TrueCrypt uses cryptographic primitives such as AES and SHA-1, not how the primitives themselves work.

This is the home of Pygments. It is a generic syntax highlighter for general use in all kinds of software such as forum systems, wikis or other applications that need to prettify source code. Highlights are:

Osh (Object SHell) is a tool that integrates the processing of structured data, database access, and remote access to a cluster of nodes. These capabilities are made available through a command-line interface (CLI) and a Python application programming interface (API). Osh processes streams of Python objects using simple commands. Complex data processing is achieved by command sequences in which the output from one command is passed to the input of the next. This is similar to composing Unix commands using pipes. However, Unix commands pass strings from one command to the next, and the commands (grep, awk, sed, etc.) are heavily string-oriented. Osh commands send primitive Python types such as strings and numbers; composite types such as tuples, lists and maps; objects representing files, dates and times; or even user-defined objects.

StatPy: Statistical Computing with Python Welcome to StatPy, a collection of resources to help you do statistical computing with Python, with a special emphasis on astrostatistics (statistics in astronomy). This web site is brand-spanking-new, and still very much under construction; please be patient with our "dust" and check back again frequently as building continues.
