sockets in pythong

anyone have any code that uses sockets in python that you wouldn't mind me seeing ?

# Server program -- Echos to the screen
# what was sent by the client program
from socket import *
import threading

def svrThread(HOST,PORT):
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((HOST, PORT))
s.listen(1)

conn, addr = s.accept()
print 'Connected by', addr
while 1:
data = conn.recv(1024)
print 'Recived', `data`
if not data: break
conn.send(data)
conn.close()

global HOST
HOST = '' # Symbolic name meaning the local host
global PORT
PORT = 50007 # Arbitrary non-privileged port
threading.Thread(target=svrThread,args=(HOST,PORT)).start()



# Client program
# Uses TKinter... type in the one line text box at the bottom
# all the text goes to the window at the top.
from socket import *
import threading
from Tkinter import *

def msgThread(addr,port):
s.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET,SO_REUSEADDR,1)
s.connect((addr,port))

def sendMessage(msg):
s.send(msg)

def onQuit():
s.send('quit')
sendThis='quit'
root.quit()

def onEnter(msg):
sendThis = entry.get()
lastSent = ""
entry.delete(0,END)
if sendThis != 'quit':
if sendThis != lastSent:
s.send(sendThis)
lastSent = sendThis
data = s.recv(1024)
msgs.insert(END,data+'\n')
else:
s.close()

entry.bind("<Return>",onEnter)
entry.focus_set()

b.grid(row=1,column=2)

global s
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)

HOST = '127.0.0.1' # The remote host

The above two programs are the start for a 'chat room' type interface.
They are not complete as is - but will work - you'll only be talking to yourself the way this is setup.
But it should help you understand how the sockets work.

Start by running the top program - once it starts you won't see anything. Then run the second program. Have Fun, let me know if you have any questions. If you modify the code I would like to see the changes you make....

The following code is an addition to the previous client program.

I added it just for some fun.
The addition includes the win32com.client

The reason for this is such that before the text appears in the window at the top it will 'speak' the text.

Again - it's just for fun... it's not dealing with sockets.



# Client program
# Uses TKinter... type in the one line text box at the bottom
# all the text goes to the window at the top.
# This version will allow you to "listen" to the chat.
# The program will speak what is dispalyed.
