Hello everyone, first post, and apologies if my question seems a bit
odd. It might need to go to the devs list

I have an old E61 Nokia phone, I can run python 1.4.5 on it. I've
tried in the past to get an older version of txt2tags to run on it. I
never got it to run, from memory I tried to import as many modules as
I could see mentioned.

I almost got it to run in the past but I think the problem is there is
no command line interface. Python script shell 1.4.5 and python for
d60 is installed.

So sorry for the odd request has anyone got an idea how to get the
thing to work? Any guesses?

Hi Nicholas,

Try version 2.4, which is the last compatible with Python 1.x. You may try
older versions as well.

You say you don't have command line, but have access to the Python
interactive shell. That's fine.

Rename the txt2tags script to txt2tags.py, so you can import it as a
module. There's a handy function exec_command_line() that you can use. It
expects to receive the full command line as a list of tokens, except the
very first item. Examples:

txt2tags --help ---> ['--help']

txt2tags -t html -i sample.t2t ---> ['-t', 'html', '-i', 'sample.t2t']

To make things easier, you can use split to create the list:

'-t html -i sample.t2t'.split()

Post by Nicholas

import txt2tags
txt2tags.exec_command_line( '-t html -i samples/sample.t2t'.split() )

txt2tags wrote samples/sample.html
Besides that, you can also use it the harder way, calling the specific
functions, as shown in samples/module/*.py files.

Note to Eric: I think these instructions will be useful in the website|wiki.

Thanks, really appreciate the detailed responses. I'll see how I go
and report back with any results.

On a Nokia E61 running 3.0633.09.04 firmware

Python 1.4.5 with script shell (which is based on Python 2.2) I was
able to convert the sample.t2t file correctly with today's date

I had to find getopt.py (based on the same version of python), I used
a plain version not a pys60 version (couldn't find one)
I loaded txt2tags.py (version 2.5) and getopt.py modules from the
interactive script shell:
import sys
sys.path.append("e:\\Python")

This was needed because the c:\resource folder which contains the
python modules was inaccessible to me.

I could then run txt2tags.exec_command_line :D

txt2tags.exec_command_line( '-t html -i e:\\sample.t2t'.split() )
sample.t2t was on the minisd card. It wrote out the file into the same folder.

Absolutely stoked! Thank YOU!

Seeing as this going into the wiki here are some corrections:

Nokia E61 uses the S60v3 platform on Symbian 9.1 but if you can manage
to get Python and the Python Shell Script on your Symbian phone then
this should work on those phones as well.

Python PyS60 1.4.5 is easiest to run on an e61, PyS60 2.0.0 is
difficult to load (I could never get it to run). PyS60 1.4.5 is based
on Python 2.2--txt2tags v2.5 compatible.

Instructions:
Install PyS60 Python 1.4.5 and Python Script Shell 1.4.5
http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Archived:PyS60_1.4.5_Quick_Start

Download from the web a Python 2.2 version of getopt.py and txt2tags-2.5

Rename the txt2tags script to txt2tags.py, so you can import it as a
module. There's a handy function exec_command_line() that you can use.

import sys #will allow you to load your getopt.py script and load
txt2tags.py module from somewhere else other than "c:\\resource", this
folder is off-limits in the e61 and is where the python modules are
stored when PyS60 is installed to the phone.

sys.path.append("c:\\Python") #please note incorrectly written as
"e:\\Python" in the list message above as the Python folder is on the
c:\\ drive when installed to the phone

import getopt #needed to run txt2tags
import txt2tags #now you can run txt2tags commands on *.t2t files
