I have a program that gets apache log on stdin. I would like to add a web interface and some RPC stuff to it.

I imagine something like protocols.basic.LineReceiver is what I want. But I can't figure out what ClientFactory to use or ???

I can find very little info on doing this. The stdio package is depreciated and the stdin.py example does not run.

The twisted.internet.stdio package isn't deprecated (or depreciated, which means something else). You should use it if you want to talk to stdin in a Twisted program.

http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.internet.stdio.html API Stability: unstable (pending deprecation in favor of a reactor-based API) I see that I jumped the gun a bit. It was late and when I saw unstable...deprecation I went looking at reactor stuff and got lost in a maelstrom of confusion.

The stdin.py example runs fine for me. In what way is it broken for you? I got a traceback (but that must have been my error). Downloading a fresh copy it runs but never echo's instead what I type shows up at console prompt after I ctrl-C python. It's probably win2000 cmd.exe's fault. The production system is Linux so use twisted.stdio on that.

thanks, norm
