How to make a file Reader and Printer

WorldTechnologyScience

Hey Python Lovers!

This time around, I will give you an Amazing & Awesome project “file Reader and Printer”.

This project is Especially for Intermediate Python programmers.

When you run the code, you have to just select the file and the work type

After Select and hitting Enter.

You will get the Response.

Your file can speak or can print the inside.

Requirements to Run the Program!

Ø Python (version >= 3.2)

Ø Pyttsx3 Module (pip install pyttsx3)

How does it's work:

There are some Screenshot with a clear explanation

1. When you start the program, you have to click an open file Button.

As figure 1

Opening App

2. On click Open file, a screen pop-up will open where you will select the file

As shown in figure 2

Ä If no file were selected, it will not forward

Select any readable file

3. Now you will select an option, which you want to process and run, also you can see the file location which you select in the pop-up

As shown in figure 3

Select option

4. As I have selected the “Print a Copy” Option for the “my_speaker.py” file. And the output will be

You can also see inside the file, without opening it.

Figure 4

Read and Listen file

*** When you start the program, a command prompt were open.
if you close it, your program will be also closed.***

The Codes are making file Reader-Printer.
