multiscript-windows 1.0.1

A lightweight wrapper to run Batch and VBScript within Python.

multiscript-windows

Multiscript is a small, open-source Python module made for executing code in other languages within Python.

Installation

Install multiscript with this command: pip install multiscript-windows.

Use

Multiscript is amazing for simplifying operations that python fails to expose easily, but how does it work?

The way you import multiscript into your project is through this line: import multiscript.

Now, you have three functions exposed to you.

Those three functions are batchscript, vbscript and commandlist.

The function commandlist gives you a list of commands that you can use in multiscript.

This includes the batchscript and vbscript commands and how to use them.

Run this command for more information.

The batchscript command executes batch in a string.

Example:

import multiscript

batchscript(
    r"""
    move test.txt .\destination
    del deleteme.png
    echo Test Complete!
    """
)
	
print("And we're still in python!")

The vbscript command executes visual basic in a string.

Example:

import multiscript

vbscript(
    r"""
    MsgBox "Hi, there!", 64 + vbOkOnly, "Hi!"
    MsgBox "Goodbye!", 64 + vbOkOnly, "Bye!"
    """
)

print("And we can still use more python!")

Some Extra

Hey, thanks for reading all the way to the end!

This README took a long time to make.

I just wanted to give you a fun thing to try in Python.

Try this command in the Python REPL (or a script). import this

This gives you "The Zen of Python", a fun guide to some additional things about Python!
