I have been working for impaired people for a while, and today i need to write a little program that use ‘Text to Speech’. This should say to the user what is happening in the house like ‘TV is on’ and so on .. It tooks me 2 minutes to discovers pyTTS, which is a python wrapper for the Microsoft Speech API. Guess what ? That’s why i love Python, simply because i’m a laisy guy, with a lot of different works.
I ‘ve quite finish the moving across server of ‘Jkx@Home‘.
This hacked version of Alinea works quite well. I have been working a bit hard on that part. In fact the main trouble i have came from my trouble w/ CSS. The other thing that run me in trouble is the ZPT. Despite i really like ZPT, this is really a pain to read, and can include some edge effect. The last point is to merge SQL backup across RDBM.
Now i need to install it on the right server and enjoy :)
I hope this will work without too much pain.
I have been working on several projects for a long time now. My first public project was MP3SB in 1999 (a long time now). Here a short list on my main works
boxMon is a monitoring tool for unix based operating system that use :
Data collecting is done through simple python scripts that are used as plugins in boxMon, in a cron job. With this tool you can monitor as many host as you want and store the data in a single database.
Alinea is a little blog system (which is used here). There is no public release yet. But stay tuned :)
Python is a object oriented programming language
After a couple of years, using Perl and PHP, now i use Python for a couple of things.
Please look at this sections for more infos on Python.
I’m currenlty working on http://www.pythonfr.org website. So i hope you will find some french documentation in soon. (Any help is really welcome right now)
Regis just release the first version of python alsa module. Beside this is a part of a really large program, i ‘ve been working on for a while, i don’t really know this part. Phil and Regis decided to distribute it alone.
For more infos check:
– Enjoy sound :)
Yes !!! boxMon reach the version 0.0.2 / after something like one year of sleep :
Here is little note of introduction

This is more a provocation for Ian, than a real post.
While looking for a good python wiki, i found http://wiki.w4py.org/thiswiki.html (wiki.Webware) really interesting. And once again this is webware so :
I don’t want to use something else so .. somebody can help me ?
I’m using spambayes for a long time now. But when i decide to install it for all the curent users of my setup (w/ some virtual domains..), i just discover that spambayes don’t have a system-wide deamon like spamassasin (spamd).
So the first try:
I first decided to write another client / server for spambayes. but looking at all the stuff writen in spamc (spamassassin client) i discover i will need a lot of nights (i’m not a C guru . even if the little try i wrote works perferctly )
Nice try, but why i shouldn’t simply write a server that use spamc as client ? .. could be really easy and efficient too (spamc is really efficient) ..
i just finish to write this and submit to the dev list
I spent about 1 hours to rebuild the resPyre website. Now it’s an old fashion plain html (despite it use ZPT and reST to buld them.
Since i totally switched my mail system to imap, i’m looking for a way to keep the folders ‘small as possible’. I talked w/ Phil about this, and he (http://base-art.net/wk/Article/3.html) hacked a existing python script. The main difference between his hack and the orginal one, is that now the folder are archived in a ‘normal’ way.
This should only work w/ courier-imap server but this is the one i use :) . I can now read mailing archive without too much pain !
