Is it possible to generate 2 different output windows with a different output on each of them (I'm on Windows 11)? For example, lets say there are 2 functions, a and b:

def a():
   print('This is output A')

def b():
   print('This is output B')

What I wanted to do is to get function a output on a console window, but get function b's output on another one. Instead of this

This is output A
This is output B

I need this

# WINDOW 1
This is output A

# WINDOW 2
This is output B

  • with `print` function, you can control the output with the option `file`. By default, is something like `print(expression, file=sys.stdout)`. You should create your own `print` function using the `os` package for open a new console – L F Jan 29 '22 at 18:01

    @LuisFelipe - Interesting design concept / hypothesis; care to add an answer to demonstrate this functionality in practice? – S3DEV Jan 29 '22 at 18:04
  • on the new consol, run the `print` statement. Something like `def my_print(text)` and use inside `os.system('python -h print("{}".format(text))')`, I think that `python -h` is the line for execute inline python code, you should google it. – L F Jan 29 '22 at 18:08
  • I'm not sure if this'd work on Windows, but on Linux, I might try creating two pipe files, opening terminals running `['cat', pipe]`, then [redirecting the function output](/a/22434262/45183410) to the pipes. It might be worth adding the [tag:Windows] tag to this question, idk. – wjandrea Jan 29 '22 at 18:24
  • Do these answer your question? [Outputting text to multiple terminals in Python](/q/22796476/4518341) and [Redirect stdout to a file in Python?](/q/4675728/4518341), as well as [Using Python's Subprocess to Display Output in New Xterm Window](/q/5558720/4518341) and [How can I create a tmp file in Python?](/q/8577137/4518341) If not, I wrote a proof-of-concept on Linux that might help. – wjandrea Jan 29 '22 at 18:53
  • @wjandrea thanks for the useful links! Luis Felipe i will try your solution – montw Jan 29 '22 at 19:47
