I know nothing about python either..... But the comments of others has
got me to ....
import time
import os
not_executed = 1
while(not_executed):
dt = list(time.localtime(time.time()))
hour = dt[3]
minute = dt[4]
if hour == 5 and minute == 45:
os.popen2("open /Users/jun/shout.mp3")
not_executed = 0
I added a "tab" to Lines 7 and 8 as well as a closing ) on Line 7. Note
that blank lines are counted.
Line 11 also has a tab added. Hope that helps...and I hope my
formatting survives.
