16.1.7 Example

 

Here is a minimal example of using STDWIN in Python. It creates a window and draws the string ``Hello world'' in the top left corner of the window. The window will be correctly redrawn when covered and re-exposed. The program quits when the close icon or menu item is requested.

import stdwin
from stdwinevents import *

def main():
    mywin = stdwin.open('Hello')
    #
    while 1:
        (type, win, detail) = stdwin.getevent()
        if type == WE_DRAW:
            draw = win.begindrawing()
            draw.text((0, 0), 'Hello, world')
            del draw
        elif type == WE_CLOSE:
            break

main()
