I've been working on this kind of text editor program and I can't figure out how to actually save the date entered into the editor with the save and saveas methods.

heres the two methods that I wrote using other examples from the wxPython site.

(Toggle Plain Text)

	def OnSave(self, event):
                """ Save a file"""
                self.dirname = ''
                fDialog = wx.FileDialog(self, "Choose a file", self.dirname, "*.*", wx.SAVE)
                if fDialog.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:
                        self.filename = fDialog.GetFilename()
                        self.dirname = fDialog.GetDirectory()
                        f = open(os.path.join(self.dirname,self.filename),'w')
                        self.text2.SetValue(f.write())
                        f.close()
                fDialog.Destroy()

	def OnSaveAs(self, event):
                """ Save a file"""
                self.dirname = ''
                fDialog = wx.FileDialog(self, "Choose a file", self.dirname, "*.*", wx.SAVE | wx.OVERWRITE_PROMPT)
                if fDialog.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:
                        self.filename = fDialog.GetFilename()
                        self.dirname = fDialog.GetDirectory()
                        f = open(os.path.join(self.dirname,self.filename),'w')
			#textString = self.text2.SetValue(str(self.text2))
                        #f.write(self.text2.SetValue(self.text2['s']))
			f.write(self.text2.SetValue(str(self.text2)))
                        f.close()
                fDialog.Destroy()

heres the frame method which creates the text editor:

(Toggle Plain Text)

class Frame(wx.Frame):
	def __init__(self, parent, id, title):
		wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, wx.ID_ANY, title, size=(500, 500),
	                        style=wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE|
		                wx.NO_FULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE)
		self.makemenubar()
		self.splitwin = wx.SplitterWindow(self)		
		self.text = wx.TextCtrl(self.splitwin, 1, style = wx.TE_MULTILINE)
		self.text2 = wx.TextCtrl(self.splitwin, 1, "text",  style = wx.TE_MULTILINE)
		self.splitwin.Initialize(self.text)
		self.splitwin.SetMinimumPaneSize(30)	
		self.splitwin.SplitVertically(self.text, self.text2, 0)
		self.SetPosition((50, 50))

		self.CreateStatusBar() # A StatusBar in the bottom of the window
		horizon = wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
		vert = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
		vert.Add(self.text2, 1, wx.EXPAND | wx.TOP | wx.RIGHT | wx.LEFT)
