Linux : kdialog

C

Cousin Stanley

I saw a reference yesterday while reading a Linux news group
to using kdialog in a bash shell script, so I decided to
try it from Python ....

import os

pipe_in = os.popen( "kdialog --inputbox 'Guido who ?' " )

reply = '"' + pipe_in.readline() + '"'

msg_box = os.system( 'kdialog --msgbox ' + reply )


This seems to be a fairly easy method
for some basic Python GUI programming in Linux
without digging too deeply into Qt or KDE docs ....

kdialog --help # for a list of other options
