Tech Art Tiki: August 2008
http://techarttiki.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
If it ain't broke, it will be soon. Friday, August 29, 2008. Read-only Windows files with Python. How do you use Python to get or change read-only/writeable access on files in Windows? The Python docs don't answer this in a direct manner. Here's one option using only the standard library. You may prefer the pywin32 extensions. For this sort of thing. Or, more concisely with win32:. Using win32 you can also set other Windows file attributes (unlike os.chmod. But read/write is usually all I care about.

If it ain't broke, it will be soon. Monday, December 5, 2011. Py2exe, Windows 7 and Vista. I don't use py2exe. Very often, but it can be a useful tool for environments that may not have an existing Python installation. I recently used py2exe on my Windows 7 PC to build a small tasktray tool. The resulting executable ran fine on my PC (doesn't it always? But threw an exception on any Vista PC it was run on. File "win32com init .pyo", line 5, in. File "win32api.pyo", line 12, in.

http://techarttiki.blogspot.com/2012/03/perforce-python-api-basics.html
If it ain't broke, it will be soon. Thursday, March 1, 2012. Perforce Python API Basics. Many Python users working with Perforce believe that calling out to "p4.exe" with subprocess is the only method available. Perforce actually maintains free, native API packages.

Tech Art Tiki
The eternal quest to improve videogame development, one stupid script at a time. Wednesday, February 20, 2013. Why retarget missing bitmaps in 3ds Max? I was just reading a blog post by Nick Covington. About retargeting missing bitmaps in 3ds Max scenes. He has a perfectly clever idea for doing so, but I wondered why I've never needed to write something similar for my users. Or rather, why so many people feel that bitmap retargeting is necessary? So am I missing something? I don't, but mileage might vary.
