Guys i was trying to open a text file in Text() widget.The problem is when i click Open File,i get the file dialog,and when i select a file and click open,i get TypeError.Please advise.Thank you.
This is the relevant code
open = PhotoImage(file='ico/open.gif')
filemenu.add_command(label="Open",accelerator='Ctrl + O',compound='left',image=open,command=open_file)
file_name = None
def open_file(event=None):
input_file_name = tkinter.filedialog.askopenfilename(defaultextension=".txt",filetypes=[("All Files", "*.*"), ("Text Documents", "*.txt")])
if input_file_name:
global file_name
file_name = input_file_name
root.title('{} - {}'.format(os.path.basename(file_name), PROGRAM_NAME))
content.delete(1.0, END)
with open(file_name) as _file:
content.insert(1.0, _file.read())
And i get this error
Exception in Tkinter callback
