[Solved] Open Calc with an external Python program

Post by cleanman2 »

I would like to control calc from an external python program. All the examples I have found assume you have already started calc in listening mode. I would like to open calc in listening mode from my python program and then connect to it. Is that possible?

If so I would appreciate it if someone could point me at an example or maybe show me some code to do it.

Thanks, Jim
