  I thought of a workaround which is superior for my purposes. Redirect the downloaded file to the console:

  curl "url" -H "X-API-Key: key-goes-here" > &3

  Where it can be copied and pasted to a new file. If can be then read like this:

  with open('outfile.json, 'r',encoding='UTF-8') as f:

  This has the real advantage of preserving all of the accented vowels, etc. in the rest of the data processing. It turns out the original file was indeed UTF-8, but could not be handled by the ASCII decoder.

  @JonB said:

  @mikael -- supposedly wkwebview has a custom useragent property that makes this easier. Does your wkwebview wrapper support that?

  It does now :-) There is a user_agent property that can be used to set a custom user agent string. I have not yet gotten it to return the default when custom is not set, but that is not relevant here.

  in Google, search for pythonista custom font read the summaries of the first few results. About 3 rd on the list is something called FontInstaller which says it will download and install a font for systemwide use. Could be worth a click to read more?

  @adrius42 Very old, indeed. I knew also Algol, like Fortran, Pl/1, Cobol, Apl and all IBM Main frames languages, all were not object oriented, thus all variables were "native", thus this difference did not exist.
  Welcome in the world of Pythonista, marvelous app for retired people 😂

  @JonB looks like you're right...I was doing something incorrectly, though now I'm not sure what.

  If I simply take the widget.bounds() and ui.convert_rect() to the ScrollView, I get a valid rectangle in the ScrollView coordinate space. So all good.
  Thanks.

  from objc_util import * import ui def touchesBegan_withEvent_(_self,_cmd,touch,event): print('TOUCH ********\n', ObjCInstance(touch)) print('EVENT ********\n', ObjCInstance(event)) MyGestureRecognizer=create_objc_class('MyGestureRecognizer',ObjCClass('UIGestureRecognizer'), methods=[touchesBegan_withEvent_]) g=MyGestureRecognizer.new() v=ui.View() v.objc_instance.gestureRecognizers=ns([g]) v.touch_enabled=True v.present('sheet')

  here is how you would get started.. you then have to figure out which methods you want to implement, and implement those.

  Or to make it easy on yourself:

  import ui viewSet = set(dir(ui.View)) print(set(dir(ui.ImageView)).difference(viewSet))

  It will give you the methods that are unique to the ImageView class and not inherited from View.
  It is just {'image', 'load_from_url'}

  Everything else is from the View and should be documented there.

  I solved it. Create a folder in the same location as the script. Write the files into that. Works in Pythonista and more importantly in apps (USB installed) as a test from Xcode.

  You can swizzle application_did_resume

  But, when I receive the hand in Pythonista_startup , is that not already too late?
  "application_did_resume" has already been called, no?

  @Drizzel it seems like Document.generate_pdf() uses subprocess to spawn a seperate process for generating the PDF. This is not allowed by iOS, thus the error.

  Could be... You'd have to look at the tracebacks to see what is failing. Check site-packages-3 and make sure you don't have any modules elsewhere named the same as one of the ones in the top level site-packages-3.

  My example above used
  v.searchController().searchView().searchBar().text=txt

  Which is probably more robust than using subviews. Sorry I wasnt clear -- the above example is fully functional. (You need to also call the delegate method for the little arrows to show up)

  try : import pylzsfe except ImportError: import pylzsfe_wrapper as pylzsfe

  Handles the compatibility issues. As far as I can tell, pylzsfe offers two methods -- compress and decompress, so should be straightforward to implement the ctypes wrappers and whatever wrappers to simulate that pylzsfe interface. That's sort of the only real option you have, certainly in the short term.
