Mail-it: do you speak Python?


La cosa più difficile per un Programmatore è “parlare” un linguaggio different. The most challenging thing is to know how to say "speak" many languages \u200b\u200b(no matter if you have the linguistic dexterity of a coconut seller apprentice). But the only smart thing for a program and choose a language based on the context, well, do not believe that it is rare to hear a programmer Italian speaking German while on holidays in the Red Sea?



In my life as a programmer I can say Multilingual: Basic, Visual Basic, Assembler, C, C + +, Visual C, ASP, PHP, HTML, CSS, Bash, SQL, and various dialects, but I have a tendency to spin everything to chew slop incomprehensible and computer "not working". And then, of Strong Computer Guru, I can help my selective memory, deprecated and low that early makes me forget all the other languages. Well

from inevitable smart programmer I have not seen fit to speak in German, but to learn to speak the "Mar Rossonese" for my future vacation I do not know when I can do!
Metaphors aside, I decided to learn a new language for the creation of a "banal desktop program" for Linux. The choice of language has slipped up Python.


Mail-it: a tender heart, born from the "Hello World"

Programmer rude learn a new language without manuals, without inquiry and without a flow sheet, as it is a necessity that stimulates a need that pushes the programmer to write software in the language in which you want to head, sooner or later, learn, or at least this was my curriculum.

The need
A colleague of mine spent a few hours a month to take pictures, open GIMP to reduce the required size and crop them, save them in JPEG optimization for the web, open an HTML document with complex Kate , find the point where to write the news, write, being careful not to damage the code layout and formatting of copying and pasting him loosely packed (HTML tags), open the file with a web browser, IceWeasel to verify all the mistakes he made without being able to see the images that are still on your local disk, open an obscure FTP client, Filezilla , to upload the HTML document and all images in the right folder, make sure the online version of functions and, finally, open Icedove and copy the HTML document to send the sweaty newsmail to a mailing list.

solution
From fervent Programmer I thought it was time to streamline those routine, and potentially dangerous operations creandogli interface to automate some processes to do his job to concentrate solely on his real task: to write the news!
Solutions as PHPlist focus primarily on the mechanism of sending the mailing, while my colleague was mainly used a guide to help him load properly, and occasionally the news and images within a HTML template (crafted by a specialist) to compose a newsmail.
And, working out, upload online publication and send the mailing.

Creating
Python I learned watching the Net code examples, the famous "Hello World . Peeps peeps here and there, the code is stacked in a functional form of the program. Software to version 0.9 sees his release under the GPL license on SourceForge under the name of Mail-it . Now my colleague

looming on the horizon .. save many hours of work that could easily invest in lavish and generous enough to offer me coffee while I cradle with moisturizing compliments. Here is a screenshot

Well, now I can say I speak as an apprentice pynthonese coconut seller on those beaches of the Red Sea where my colleague will spend his holidays at my face. Enjoy
Python


PS: But my colleague, who is packing his bags, he does not know that I have not yet created a module to manage the sending of newsmail ;-)


For More Information, download, use and implement mail.it: -mail it.sourceforge.net

If anyone would like to report bugs or contribute to the development and / or improve the translation (it is now only in Italian and English) ... write (somewhere there should be my email address)

If someone wants to create a logo nicer than what I Oxygen icons from the cloning can send their contributions in formato SVG

Se qualcuno volesse offrirmi un caffè... beh, mi venga a trovare, qui ci sono dei validi bar ;-)
