Why do you ask? It should be very easy to create this in Python on your own from the many source codes of lockdown that are readily available.

Lickdown, huh? Is that a distant cousin of Leisure Suit Larry?

Lmao. I just fixed it. That had me laughing out loud. :)

Looks like someone had something else on their mind at that time...

Heh, I was actually at work typing on my iPhone. When I do that it's sometimes a hassle to re-read what I wrote to check for errors so often I don't look for errors.
i was wondering if someone could save me the work, anything wrong about it?

Don't be dense. He wants to save himself the extra bit of work in the event that someone else had already ported the solution over.

I was trying to convince myself that he wouldn't ask for someone to do just that, so he could copy and paste a few functions into his program without ever knowing how it works.
There is nothing wrong with trying to save yourself from doing work that's already been done; that's the premise for the entire open source movement. Besides, if he already has a working client, then it wouldn't make a difference if he's taking the copy-and-paste approach since he's going to have to implement it into his current code anyway.

The source code he wants does not exist.
He's not asking anyone to port it for him; way to sidestep the point. Regardless, I digress.

"checkrevision in python" ... hmm. This couldn't mean he would like to have checkrevision in Python, could it?
He didn't say he wanted to just have access to the checkrevision while using Python, he wants checkrevision IN Python. Clearly meaning that he wants it coded in Python. Way to not pay attention.

iirc there is one but if it has been publicly released is another story, to stay with the topic if you have the knowledge enough to do TCP/IP why not just go the BNLS/JBLS route.

Stop trying to downplay it with the semantics argument in order to save face. It was obvious what he was asking for, and my point addressed just that: the OP was seeing if anyone had
already ported checkrevision to Python so that he could
use it with his current code.
To spell it out for you:

You are switching up your argumentative stance at this point, as evidenced by the initial post I quoted.
In response to your ad hominem of "way to not pay attention," either learn how to argue with content not based on semantics or stfu. Better yet, gtfo.

Thanks for the second opinion, l)ragon. :)
Off-topic, not that all of this isn't already off-topic: You haven't been on IRC in awhile. Get on it!

Nothing has been publicly released. Someone has made a bot written entirely in Python, that uses BNLS/JBLS. If one has been done privately, then I don't see who could possibly have been the person to have done it in private. Not one person from this forum, or any other Battle.net forum I've been on would be that person.
Why wouldn't it be possible to just convert the java version, or whatever versions are out there, to Python? If that's the case then I bet there's plenty of people on here who "could possibly do it in private".

It would be easy, but few people have mentioned the subject. As easy as it wiuld be, I wouldn't be surprised if it hasn't been done yet.
i didnt expect this thread to become so ugly.
to make some things clear: i dont expect anything from anyone.
i was just asking if someone *had already* ported it, so that i could save some time. if not, fine, bad luck, i will do it myself.
i dont like the bnls/jnls route because i dont like relying on other peoples servers running if i can avoid it. i have been having problems with bnls servers going down/not responding, etc. and i dont like the idea that i send my cleartext cdkeys to some private persons computer in cleartext (thats why i always just did the revision check over bnls)
i dont remember the name of the one who said i need to understand code before i use it... well dude, you are wrong. if i read all the code that i use from libraries, i'd be a grandma before even having read 1%. and libraries are made for re-use without having to know the internals, arent they?
i am not having a problem with sitting down and understanding things thorougly, if thats what you mean.
