I wish you Sagars a friendly welcome to this Forum
First you can write your app with any text editor and run it with your S60 phone after installing Python on your phone !
If you want develop on emulator you can install SDK but I read the requirements and all need Win 2000 or Win XP.
For installation go here

Hi sagars,

hmmm.... I not sure what you ask! The python script shell allows you to see python in your phone application menu.

To make scripts, create a text file on your computer and rename it with a .py extension. Write your program and push the file on the phone via bluetooth or usb cable in e:\python (on the phone)

Start PyS60 and choose your script in the list to run it.

where i will get the programing information for python. i want the detail of python programming language and some sample script, i mean the source code.

Some basic PyS60 stuff at http://mobilenin.com/

hi, i wanna to know more about SDK's requirement. u told me that all the SDK's require win2000 sp4. but i want to know that up to my knowledge mobile phones were in exists before win2000. so at that time hw they might had programmed, its the real fact to think about.

You don't need the SDK to develop or run Python applications on your phone. Just install the Python interpretter on the phone. Write the Python script using any text editor, for example Notepad, on any computer (using any OS, e.g. Win98, Linux, Mac, whatever you like), and transfer the file with the script to the phone as instructed in an earlier post. You don't need to install anything on your PC.

Hi sagars,

First of all, I would recommend you to write English properly without using any kind of abbreviations for at least the 2 following reasons:

• some people are not necessary very comfortable with English so you could not get back the help you need from someone that knows the answer to your problem just because they can't get what you want.
• The second reason it that if one search for help he (she )won't be able to find it in your post because the word won't match with the search engine!

So lease make an effort!

Which phone are you using? Writing scripts from the phone will be very long if you don't have a proper keyboard. But they are of course some text editor for Symbian: http://allaboutsymbian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51206: this one (there's a link on the page) is in Python! But the installation package seams to be for 2nd edition. So that why you need to check you phone version. Since it's a Python application, by self-signing the .sis you should be able to install and run your app on a 3rd edition device.

There must be others so it's not the perfect solution, some googling would give links to other apps

Thanks, next time i will not use abbrevition..
i am using Nokia 6260, it is series 60 2nd edition phone, i had checked it out.
i had written the program for pop-up window its working properly but i am facing one problem. it is after that after we run script and viewed the message that we had displayed the program comes out. so to check out for next option we again has to run script and then view it. it very tedious job to do. so pl. help me out. below i am sending you my script...........

import appuifw

L = [u"Mtech", u"Company", u"sagar"]
S = [u"balagi nagar", u"kelawadi"]

test = appuifw.popup_menu(L, u"Select & press OK:")
new = appuifw.popup_menu(S, u"Select and press OK")

#if test == 0 :
# appuifw.note(u"welcome to mtech", "info")

if test == 0 and new == 0 :
appuifw.note(u"Mtech, corporate office", "info")

if test == 0 and new == 1 :
appuifw.note(u"Mtech, Factory", "info")

if test == 1 and new == 0 :
appuifw.note(u"Company, embedded", "info")

if test == 1 and new == 1 :
appuifw.note(u"Company, factory", "info")

if test == 2 and new == 0 :
appuifw.note(u"sagar, RnD engg", "info")

if test == 2 and new == 1 :
appuifw.note(u"Not available", "info")

Hi Sagars,

it's perfectly normal. You are running a script, i.e the interpreter will run the commands you give to it line by line. So after the last instruction you program will exit.

If you want to have a program that exit only when you want it to, it's simple. Here is an extract you can find at Mobilenin

import appuifw
import e32

def exit_key_handler():
    app_lock.signal()                <-- 3.Signals the lock i.e means your script  will terminate


round = appuifw.Text()
round.set(u'hello')

# put the application screen size to full screen
appuifw.app.screen='full' #(a full screen)

# other options:
#appuifw.app.screen='normal' #(a normal screen with title pane and softkeys)
#appuifw.app.screen='large' #(only softkeys visible)



app_lock = e32.Ao_lock()        <-- 1.create an active object

appuifw.app.body = round

appuifw.app.exit_key_handler = exit_key_handler
app_lock.wait()                     <-- 2.wait until you signal

And one more thing, next time you post some code, use the CODE tag (# button) in order to keep the indents
