Pushover App- integration with PSX PRINT function?

[andrej]

Dear Jeroen,
Thank you for this brief intro. Very useful!
It is greatly appreciated. Similar to the old proverb, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”, I rather learn to code.

Cheers,

My pleasure.

Remember that this program, though short, uses a lot of complex techniques such as asynchronous event handling that are guaranteed to make you wonder what's going on here. This is the unfortunate truth of programming, just as of flying an airplane: there is no such thing as an easy start. Once you lift off, it's all-out full everything at once. So I gladly be your instructor on these first flights  :-P

PS. And if people push me enough, I will also show how you could FAA-certify this kind of stuff for real-world commercial aviation use under DO-178C, but that may take a few more postings  :-P

  Well: I have loads of them at home now, but quitted flying. Shall I send them over?

Groet,
Simon

Hoppie-

After a few sessions of head scratching and reading your post over about 50 times, I arrived at



but more importantly this on my iPhone



I can't thank you enough- this is just splendid!

Hoppie-

Whilst you are in the teaching mode- is there a way I can make that command prompt py file a clickable executable and assign an icon to it? That way it can be run with a mouse click instead of the keyboard?

Ta- C

[Jeroen Hoppenbrouwers]

Sure. Create a Shortcut where you want it (Background click >> new >> shortcut) and point it at the python.exe interpreter. Name it Pushover. Then right-click on it and select Properties. After the python.exe in Target, BEHIND the quotes, add the path to your psx-pushover.py file. You may change the window type to minimized and give it a new icon.

That's it!

DONE!  Many thanks Hoppie!  Off to work on the Mac now...

... and with STILL MORE OF HOPPIE'S HELP- success on the Mac!



FINALLY!  Thank-you Hoppie!

Now, I get PSX Pushovers to my iPhone and iPad which I can reference indefinitely, and delete when done- fantastic!

Thank you for all the advice. Uploaded the code to Github for ease of use: https://github.com/GodAtum360/PSX-Stuff/blob/master/psx-pushover%20-%20master.py

This is NOT my code- it is HOPPIES.  Please check with him BEFORE uploading it anywhere.

TY- C
