- 1. SUBMITTED BY:- ROHIT MALAV SUBMITTED TO:- MR.GAJANAND SIR MAKING NOTEDPAD IN PAYTHON
- 2. OBJECTIVE:- The thoughtfully designed software, making notepad using frame system is meant for computer working in organisations. The software is integrated with the data in the computer organisation.
- 3. KEY HIGHLIGHTS The barebone text editor So here’s the starting code for a text editor: import Tkinter import ScrolledText # Because Tkinter textarea does not provide scrolling # abilities, we use this additional library root = Tkinter.Tk(className=" Just another Text Editor") textPad = ScrolledText.ScrolledText(root, width=100, height=80) textPad.pack() root.mainloop()
- 4. Adding Menu Items import Tkinter from Tkinter import Menu import ScrolledText root = Tkinter.Tk(className="Just another Text Editor") textPad = ScrolledText.ScrolledText(root, width=100, height=80) # creates text area # create a menu def dummy(): print "I am a Dummy Command, I will be removed in the next step" menu = Menu(root) root.config(menu=menu) filemenu = Menu(menu) menu.add_cascade(label="File", menu=filemenu) filemenu.add_command(label="New", command=dummy) filemenu.add_command(label="Open...", command=dummy) filemenu.add_command(label="Save", command=dummy) filemenu.add_separator() filemenu.add_command(label="Exit", command=dummy) helpmenu = Menu(menu) menu.add_cascade(label="Help", menu=helpmenu) helpmenu.add_command(label="About...", command=dummy) # end of menu creation textPad.pack() root.mainloop()
- 5. ADDING FUNCTIONALITY TO EACH MENU ITEM import Tkinter from Tkinter import * from ScrolledText import * import tkFileDialog import tkMessageBox root = Tkinter.Tk(className=" Just another Text Editor") textPad = ScrolledText(root, width=100, height=80) # create a menu & define functions for each menu item def open_command(): file = tkFileDialog.askopenfile(parent=root,mode='rb',title='Select a file') if file != None: contents = file.read() textPad.insert('1.0',contents) file.close() def save_command(self): file = tkFileDialog.asksaveasfile(mode='w') if file != None: # slice off the last character from get, as an extra return is added
- 6. contents = file.read() textPad.insert('1.0',contents) file.close() def save_command(self): file = tkFileDialog.asksaveasfile(mode='w') if file != None: # slice off the last character from get, as an extra return is added data = self.textPad.get('1.0', END+'-1c') file.write(data) file.close() def exit_command(): if tkMessageBox.askokcancel("Quit", "Do you really want to quit?"): root.destroy() def about_command(): label = tkMessageBox.showinfo("About", "Just Another TextPad n Copyright n No rights left to reserve")
- 7. def dummy(): print "I am a Dummy Command, I will be removed in the next step" menu = Menu(root) root.config(menu=menu) filemenu = Menu(menu) menu.add_cascade(label="File", menu=filemenu) filemenu.add_command(label="New", command=dummy) filemenu.add_command(label="Open...", command=open_command) filemenu.add_command(label="Save", command=save_command) filemenu.add_separator() filemenu.add_command(label="Exit", command=exit_command) helpmenu = Menu(menu) menu.add_cascade(label="Help", menu=helpmenu) helpmenu.add_command(label="About...", command=about_command) # textPad.pack() root.mainloop() That gives us a simple Text Editor designed in Python & Tkinter with the basic functionalities. If you play with this code and add more functionalities, do let me know in the comment section.
