To install Iperf on a CentOS system with yum install iperf,
you may need to configure the system to use the Extra Packages for Enterprise
Linux (EPEL) repository, which you can do by issuing the command
yum install epel-release. A repository is a source for software
packages that can be installed with yum.

import urllib2 url="http://www.example.com/somepage.html" page =urllib2.urlopen(url) source=page.read() print source
If you wish the script to prompt for the URL and a location for a file where the source code for the web page will be stored, you can use the following:
import urllib2
url=raw_input("URL: ")
outfile=raw_input("Output file: ")
page =urllib2.urlopen(url)
source=page.read()
f=open(outfile, 'w')
f.write(source)
f.close()The "w" in the f=open(outfile, 'w') line indicates the file
should be opened for writing. Other possible modes for the file are listed
below:
| Modes | Description |
|---|---|
| r | Opens a file for reading only. The file pointer is placed at the beginning of the file. This is the default mode. |
| rb | Opens a file for reading only in binary format. The file pointer is placed at the beginning of the file. This is the default mode. |
| r+ | Opens a file for both reading and writing. The file pointer placed at the beginning of the file. |
| rb+ | Opens a file for both reading and writing in binary format. The file pointer placed at the beginning of the file. |
| w | Opens a file for writing only. Overwrites the file if the file exists. If the file does not exist, creates a new file for writing. |
| wb | Opens a file for writing only in binary format. Overwrites the file if the file exists. If the file does not exist, creates a new file for writing. |
| w+ | Opens a file for both writing and reading. Overwrites the existing file if the file exists. If the file does not exist, creates a new file for reading and writing. |
| wb+ | Opens a file for both writing and reading in binary format. Overwrites the existing file if the file exists. If the file does not exist, creates a new file for reading and writing. |
| a | Opens a file for appending. The file pointer is at the end of the file if the file exists. That is, the file is in the append mode. If the file does not exist, it creates a new file for writing. |
| ab | Opens a file for appending in binary format. The file pointer is at the end of the file if the file exists. That is, the file is in the append mode. If the file does not exist, it creates a new file for writing. |
| a+ | Opens a file for both appending and reading. The file pointer is at the end of the file if the file exists. The file opens in the append mode. If the file does not exist, it creates a new file for reading and writing. |
| ab+ | Opens a file for both appending and reading in binary format. The file pointer is at the end of the file if the file exists. The file opens in the append mode. If the file does not exist, it creates a new file for reading and writing. |
If you named the script download_webpage.py, you could run it from a command line inteface, aka shell prompt, as follows:
$ python download_webpage.py URL: http://www.example.com/somepage.html Output file: example-somepage.html

googledrivesync.exe process that handles the synchronization
and then restart it. You can kill the processes - there are actually two
of them running with the same "googledrivesync.exe" name - from the command line
with taskkill /f /fi "imagename eq googledrivesync.exe" and
then restart them with the command
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Drive\googledrivesync, assuming
that the googledrivesync application is stored in the
default location of "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Drive\.

I could then see, when I selected the field that was to hold the amperage, that the Field Size value was set to Long Integer. An integer field, obviously, won't hold a fractional part for the number.
I set the value to Single instead by clicking in the field and selecting that option from the dropdown list, so I could store a floating point value in the field rather than an integer.
From the dropdown list for field size, you can select the following values:
Setting | Description |
Decimal precision | Storage size |
|---|---|---|---|
Byte |
Stores numbers from 0 to 255 (no fractions). |
None |
1 byte |
Decimal |
Stores numbers from -10^38-1 through 10^38-1 (.adp) |
28 |
2 bytes |
Integer |
Stores numbers from -32,768 to 32,767 (no fractions). |
None |
2 bytes |
Long Integer |
(Default) Stores numbers from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 (no fractions). |
None |
4 bytes |
Single |
Stores numbers from |
7 |
4 bytes |
Double |
Stores numbers from |
15 | 8 bytes |
Replication ID |
Globally unique identifier (GUID) |
N/A |
16 bytes |
Note: you can see the values that each one can hold by hitting the F1 key to get online help on the topic after clicking on the value stored in the Field Size field while in Design View.
When I switched back to Datasheet View by clicking on View and then selecting Datasheet View, I was then able to change the value from 2.0 to 1.5 and have it remain as 1.5, i.e., Access had stopped rounding numbers to the nearest integer for the field.

wmic at a
command prompt or get-wmiobject -class win32_diskdrive from a
Windows PowerShell
prompt.
For wmic, you can use the following command:
C:\Users\JDoe\Documents>wmic diskdrive get caption, model, serialnumber Caption Model SerialNumber TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 73RISBDFS Seagate Backup+ Desk USB Device Seagate Backup+ Desk USB Device NA5J4H3R
In the above example, I also included the caption
parameter to get a description for the drive that may help me more
easily identify it, though in this case the caption information and the
model information are the same. In the above case, the Toshiba drive
is the internal drive in the system while the Seagate is an external,
USB-attached drive.
To use PowerShell to obtain the same information, I could use the command below:
PS C:\Users\JDoe> get-wmiobject -class win32_diskdrive | format-table Caption, Model, SerialNumber Caption Model SerialNumber ------- ----- ------------ TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 73RISBDFS Seagate Backup+ Desk USB Device Seagate Backup+ Desk USB Device NA5J4H3R
You can obtain much more information on drives in PowerShell with the
get-wmiobject -class win32_diskdrive | format-list * command.
If the drive supports
Self-Monitoring, Analysis
and Reporting Technology (SMART), you can use the status
command to learn if the drive may be failing or is encountering problems that
could lead to a drive failue.
PS C:\Users\Jim> get-wmiobject -class win32_diskdrive | format-table Caption, Model, Status, SerialNumber Caption Model Status SerialNumber ------- ----- ------ ------------ TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 Pred Fail 73RISBDFS Seagate Backup+ Desk USB D... Seagate Backup+ Desk USB D... OK NA5J4H3R
The Toshiba drive has a status of Pred Fail, which indicates
a SMART-enabled hard disk may be functioning correctly, but a failure is
predicted soon. You can also retrieve the status of a drive using
the wmic command.
C:\Users\JDoe\Documents>wmic diskdrive get model, status, serialnumber Model SerialNumber Status TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 73RISBDFS Pred Fail Seagate Backup+ Desk USB Device NA5J4H3R OK
Other parameters you can use with wmic to obtain drive information, such as the capacity of the drive, etc., are listed at Using wmic to get disk drive information.
A PowerShell command that can be used to determine which drive the operating system considers to be drive zero, drive one, etc. is shown below:
PS C:\Users\JDoe> Get-WmiObject Win32_PhysicalMedia | Format-Table Tag, SerialNumber Tag SerialNumber --- ------------ \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0 73RISBDFS \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE1 NA5J4H3R \\.\CDROM1 \\.\CDROM0

macros directory beneath
the direcory where you installed K-Meleon to make them available to all users
of the browser on a system; K-Meleon runs on Microsoft Windows systems.
There are many .kmm files available for download in the K-Meleon Macro Library . Instructions for adding a KMM to a system are at K-Meleon - Adding a Macro Module. Instructions for creating macros are at K-Meleon - Creating a Macro Module.
CheckWinVer.exe.
The problem was due to the fact that I hadn't right-clicked on the installation file and chosen "Run as administrator". When I aborted the installation and started over running it as administrator, the program installed successfully.
In
MediaMonkey,
to clear the database, you can click on File then select Clear
Database. You will then be prompted to type "YES" to ensure that
you didn't inadvertently select to remove all entries from the Media
Monkey music library for your account. For a family member who wanted
to reinitialize her library, though, I found that after typing "YES"
in all capital letters to proceed that a blue circling ring appeared
for awhile, but afterwards all of the entries remained visible in the
proram. If I clicked on File and selected Close or clicked
on the "X" at the upper, right-hand corner of the Media Monkey window,
the program would not close. When I closed the program through the
Windows Task Manager, reopening it showed all the entries remained.
Perhaps, because she had such an extensive music collection, the
program may have been taking a long time to clear the database, but
the library was never cleared after we performed several attempts
to clear it. But there is another way to clear the database and
start fresh. You can, instead, delete the Media Monkey database
file, MM.DB. After killing the program through the Task
Manager, I deleted that file, which, on a Windows 8 system is found at
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey\MM.DB
where username is the username for the account. Note: you may
have to turn on the display of hidden files, folders, and drives through
the Windows Explorer in order to view that location. I also deleted
MM.DB-journal, which is found at that location. Then,
when she reopened Media Monkey, the library was empty and she was able
to add the music she wanted in the library back into it.
sndvol command from a command prompt.
If you issue the command with no options, it will open the Volume Mixer
that will allow you to adjust the audio volume.
You can view just the master volume slider if you use the -f
option, i.e., sndvol -f.
You can add an additional numeric parameter to the command line to control the horizontal and vertical position of the mixer window, if you wish, as explained at Windows 7 - Open the Volume Control popup from the command prompt.
OS X also provides the command line security utility for managing
certificates. You can use security find-certificate email_address
where email_address is the email address to which you wish to
send email to determine if you already have a public certificate for the
recipient in your keychain.
If you are using PKI software from Entrust on the system, you can also use it to retrieve public certificates for recipients.
