mark.py

Posted a short script to http://paste.pocoo.org/show/402065/
Output PNG files using Pygments for the python code in a directory (used it for short snippets used in a presentation) :)
(edit: Thanks to Marius for suggesting a sample.)

So I wanted to use Pystemmer (http://snowball.tartarus.org/wrappers/PyStemmer-1.1.0.tar.gz not http://sourceforge.net/projects/pystemmer/ which seems to be out of date), but there is no included Visual Studio makefile or solution.
So what to do?
Below are the steps that I find work reasonably well (hopefully documented in a way that will allow other people to do the same for whatever library they are working with)....

I finally got around to releasing SendKeysCtypes (Sending key strokes to the active app on Windows) to http://bitbucket.org/markm/sendkeysctypes.
There is no setup.py yet, it is not registered on PYPI - but at least it is available.
I did a quick check and had to make a small change to make it work on Python 3.1 :)...

I will be speaking at PyCon Asia Pacific.
My talk is titled "Writing Application Plugins in Python". I aim to show how Python can be used to implement plugin functionality for applications that never even heard of Python.
The idea being, that if you write a small amount of shim code (using Pyrex/Cython to make it really easy) then you can pass most of the work off to Python. I work on Windows, and my examples will be on that OS, but very little of what I present will...
