hi everybody

maybe another newbie question
(i'm still learning...hard hard)

is it possible to execute a py script with appmgr ? edited : yes

or even better directly from fexplorer(since appmgr itself is a python script wich is launched when we open a py script in fexplorer)
_____

oops another question

fexplorer now allow "open with", is it possible to open for exemple a txt file with fexplorer directly to a python text editor(i tried with ppeditor but didn't succed)

thanks for any help or advise
bye bye

No, it's currently not possible to run a execute a script directly with appmgr.

When clicking on a .py link the web browser on some phones downloads the script and gives it directly to the appmgr for execution. Direct execution of scripts with appmgr was disabled because of security concerns this might cause.

Another point is that running a script inside appmgr would be yet another slightly different environment in addition to the script shell and the standalone app environments.

thank you very much for answering me

but i like mission impossible
indeed there seems to be some new difficulties on 3rd edition phones but for now i'm using n-gage(1st edition), there is no problem with web browser...

actually i've just managed to execute a py script from a modified appmgr
but there are still some problems

anyway appmgr is just a py script(and a py script can execute another py script), i already renamed filebrowser.py to default.py in appmgr folder(it worked... a little ) but i'm planning to completely change appmgr(but keep the original for installing standalone applications : so important) if i can't successfully modify it(without the actual problems i encountered )

work in progress...(if you want to try my actual modified appmgr :here)

How do you execute another py script with a py script? I've been searching the forums, but can't seem to find it. Thanks!

You can do that by using the execfile command.
execfile( filename[, globals[, locals]]) ,
where globals and locals are optional.

Here's an example: from our script exf.py we want to execute c.py
c.py contains the following:

x=3
print x

exf.py contains the following:

import appuifw, e32

def quit():
	app_lock.signal()
appuifw.app.exit_key_handler=quit

f='C:\\Python\\c.py'
execfile(f)

app_lock=e32.Ao_lock()
app_lock.wait()

This should show 3 on the phone screen.
