Every now and again, even I'm amazed by how cool Python is.
Hey, how about combining this with Hans' Windows Explorer integration? Right click on a folder, "Serve from here"? I'll give this a bash at lunchtime...
Posted to Python by Simon Brunning at March 15, 2004 10:59 AMI've seen this posted a few places with links to Kevin's weblog, and nowhere to mine! *sob* I'll have to go elsewhere for my ego stroking!

Via Aaron[1]. ;-)
Anyway, surely the fact that Kevin reads your blog is enough of an ego stroke?

Posted by: Simon Brunning on March 15, 2004 02:21 PMFor some reason, the syntax
python -c '__import__("SimpleHTTPServer").test()'
didn't work on my system at work running XP.
What did work was this:
python -c "import SimpleHTTPServer;SimpleHTTPServer.test()"
I wondered about the syntax of Aaron's original post, but I tested on my Mac and then posted to my blog before trying it out on Windows. The syntax Christian uses is certainly what I would have expected and is much simpler. I'm going to update my blog post to use that since it is Unix-friendly too and simplifies the stupid csh alias quoting too.

i'm new to Python & downloaded python 2.3 for win2k.i have seen a documentation on http://altis.pycs.net/2004/03/14.html#a96 stating that PCs can become a web server,but i could'nt configure the following command- python -c "import SimpleHTTPServer;SimpleHTTPServer.test()" .i got the following error.
SyntaxError: invalid syntax. can u guide me
Also how can one move to Directory,'Myserver' using python command?

vinod
python -c "import SimpleHTTPServer;SimpleHTTPServer.test()" works fine for me, Vinod. What's the *exact* message that you get?
Oh, just a thought - you need to run this from a *Window* command line, not from withing the Python interpretor.
You can change the current working directory using os.chdir() - not that I'd recommend it.
