I'd like to be able to tell Netscape what URL to look at, from Python. I'm
asking here because I have at least a clue how to do that on a Mac:
Netscape understands a bunch of AppleEvents and I could tell it to do a
getURL command. I'm not EXACTLY sure how to do it from Mac Python, but I'm
hoping that somebody here does.
But more generally, I think that there are ways of doing this on UNIX and
Windows boxes. Does anyone know of a *portable* Python module that would
let me control Netscape via whatever inter-application communication
mechanisms exist on each platform?
Thanks!
Mark
