Could you please show us how to run this thing in Windows environment?
Thanks a lot.
No trouble, we'll try and get you up and running.
There's a FAQ on this topic on the python website here for more information:
http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html
Cliffs though:
1. Install python
2. Edit your path to include the python directory. This involves right clicking "my computer", clicking the "advanced" tab, and clicking properties. Then adding the directory that the python executable is in.
3. Launch a command shell window. You can do this by clicking start->run and then typing "cmd".
4. Navigate to the directory the script is in using the command "cd". For example, if your logs is currently on the c: drive you might type:
"cd c:\acpclogs", without the quotes.
5. Run the program by typing in:
"python acpcLogToFTLog.py <pathToLogFile>".
Hope that helps? These instructions are for winXP - I'm not as familiar with win7, but there should be an equivalent way to run it there.
