codingdirectional: Get the pc os information with python

This is the last article about the ongoing tkinter project which I will continue to develop it but will not show you any more source code in the future. In this article we will use the python platform module to get all the information about the operating system of your pc, the brand of your pc’s chipset as well as the local name of your computer network, all these information will be shown on the label part of the tkinter interface once the user has clicked on the system info button. Below is the full source code of the newly edited main project file.

from tkinter import *
from tkinter import filedialog
from Remove import Remove

win = Tk() # Create tk instance
win.title("Multitas") # Add a title
win.resizable(0, 0) # Disable resizing the GUI
win.configure(background='black') # change background color
win.iconbitmap(('icon.ico'))

#  Create a label
aLabel = Label(win, text="Select tasks from buttons below, if you have any question then read the manual!", anchor="center", padx=13, pady=10, relief=RAISED,)
aLabel.grid(column=0, row=0, sticky=W+E)
aLabel.configure(foreground="white")
aLabel.configure(background="black")
aLabel.configure(wraplength=160)
aLabel.message = ''

# Create a selectFile function to remove the duplicate files
def selectFile():

    fullfilenames = filedialog.askopenfilenames(initialdir="/", title="Select a file") # select multiple files from the hard drive

    if(fullfilenames != ''):

        fullfilenamelist = win.tk.splitlist(fullfilenames)
        directory_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(fullfilenamelist[0]))

        os.chdir(directory_path)  # change the directory to the selected file directory

        folder = filedialog.askdirectory()  # 7 open a folder then create and start a new remove thread to delete the duplicate file
        folder = folder.replace('/', '\\')  # 8 this is for the windows separator only

        if(folder != '' and folder != os.getcwd()):

Try to run the program above together with the previous python files and you will find out all the above-mentioned information of your computer. With that, we have concluded the final chapter of this tkinter project, as I have mentioned before I will continue to develop this application but will no longer show any further source code of this project on this website!

It is time to move on, our next tutorial package will be about various usage examples from various python modules so stay tuned for the next article. If you are interested to know more about the latest development of the above project, then do follow it on its main page!
