I am converting a PHP-wxWidgets app to Python-wxWidgets.

In PHP you can open and read from local files or remote internet streams, based on the "filename" parameter starting with one of several network protocols (http:// , ftp:// , ssh2://. ogg:// , etc).

For example:

fh1 = fopen("/etc/hostname")

fh2 = fopen("https://www.whatismyip.com/")



What is the equivalent in Python-2.7.15 , Python 3.6.7 ?

  • How is this ubuntu-related or ubuntu-specific? it seems like a stackoverflow question.
