<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 580736 by <a href="/recipes/users/4173351/">Vasudev Ram</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/commandline/">commandline</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/csv/">csv</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/data/">data</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/files/">files</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/formats/">formats</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/pdf/">pdf</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/pdf_generation/">pdf_generation</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/python/">python</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/tsv/">tsv</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/utilities/">utilities</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/xtopdf/">xtopdf</a>). </p> <p>This recipe shows how to publish delimiter-separated values (a commonly used tabular data format) to PDF, using the xtopdf toolkit for PDF creation. It lets the user specify the delimiter via one of two command-line options - an ASCII code or an ASCII character. As Unix filters tend to do, it can operate either on standard input or on input filenames given as command-line arguments. In the case of multiple inputs via files, each input goes to a separate PDF output file.</p>

Passing that token to the _ah/login GAE endpoint then gives the cookie that can be used to make further authenticated requests.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 492213 by <a href="/recipes/users/2608421/">Stephen Chappell</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/files/">files</a>). </p> <p>DAL5 continues to refine the file system's interface and provides methods that should look similar to what most programmers are used to working with. Files have still not been completely abstracted away and all path names must be given as relative to the root. The path separator is defined in this module along with a list of characters for valid file and directory names.</p>
