I am very interested in and need a python data export plugin to export
snapshots of data to a .csv file with a user key event. This feature
would greatly reduce laborious note taking when analyzing data in KST.

I was trying to reply to an older thread but could not for various
reasons - my apologies for starting a new thread. If no one has time
to build it in the next 6 months or sooner, please point me to more
information on how to build it and I will try to do it as I have time.
I am very new and inexperienced with coding, especially with Python, but
I have a lot of motivation to learn. I have windows and linux. Below is
Are you imagining that the external file is constantly appended to as
you
move the mouse? Or would the user do something (eg, hit a key?) to
trigger an event.
I think a semi-general approach would be to add a PyKst call that would
return a structure with lots of useful state information (frame
information,
cursor position, list of key/mouse events since the last call). Then a
python script could poll kst2 waiting for whatever you want, then the
python could go off and parse files to its heart's content. Sound ok?
In a couple of commutes, I could add something to PyKst to make this
possible if you think it would be useful. I think it could be pretty
cool.
Are you running windows? If so, I might need some help in getting it
all
working there. I /think/ python scripting works fine in windows, but...
I don't
run windows (the Win 10 upgrade has managed to bork my windows
partition) myself.
Your suggestion sounds really great. Yes I am running Windows 7.
The user should hit a key to trigger an event.
Does the windows version supports python interface or scripting? I am
running Kst Version 2.0.8 Revision 29f1416.
Thanks a lot for your help
Kind regards
Joerg
