Printing the output of a script to a window in python - python-2.7

Question

I am trying to create a GUI for the analyzeMFT python program. So far this is what i have
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from Tkinter import *
from ttk import *
import analyzeMFT
class Example(Frame):
def __init__(self, parent):
Frame.__init__(self, parent)
self.parent = parent
self.filename = ""
self.initUI()
def initUI(self):
self.parent.title("Mtf Analyzer")
#initializing and configuring menubar
menubar = Menu(self.parent)
self.parent.config(menu=menubar)
fileMenu = Menu(menubar)
fileMenu.add_command(label="Open file", command=self.fileOpen)
fileMenu.add_command(label="Exit", command=self.onExit)
menubar.add_cascade(label="File", menu=fileMenu)
#specify grid row and column spaces
self.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True)
self.columnconfigure(1, weight=1)
self.columnconfigure(3, pad=7)
self.rowconfigure(3, weight=1)
self.rowconfigure(5, pad=7)
lbl = Label(self, text="File Name")
lbl.grid(row=1, column=0, sticky=W, pady=4, padx=5)
filename_area = Entry(self)
filename_area.grid(row=1, column=1, columnspan=3,
padx=5)
analize_button = Button(self, text="Analize", command=self.processFile)
analize_button.grid(row=1, column=4, padx=5)
area = Text(self)
area.grid(row=2, column=1, columnspan=2, rowspan=4,
padx=5, sticky=E+W+S+N)
#configure the raw output view
def onExit(self):
self.quit()
#this function selects and opens the file to analize
def fileOpen(self):
from tkFileDialog import askopenfilename
Tk().withdraw()
self.filename = askopenfilename()
#populate the filename field
#do the processing of the file obtained. Populate the file NAME entry or
#send the filename to the analyzeMFT.py
def processFile(self):
filei = "-f "+self.filename
arguments = [filei, '-o '+self.filename+' .csv']
analyzeMFT.main(arguments)
#get and set methods for the entry field
def get(self):
return self.filename_area.get()
def set(self, value):
filename_area.set(value)
def main():
root = Tk()
root.geometry("250x150+300+300")
app = Example(root)
root.mainloop()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
This code creates a gui that i can chose a file to analyze using the analyzeMFT program. There are two problems.
1.analyzeMFT is meant to be run on command line. I am not able to pass the file name I get from the GUI to the analyzeMFT.py Here are the contents of analyzeMFT.py
#!/usr/bin/python
try:
from analyzemft import mftsession
except:
from .analyzemft import mftsession
def main():
session = mftsession.MftSession()
session.mft_options()
session.open_files()
session.process_mft_file()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Next, when i run the analyzerMFT in cmd and enable debug mode, it prints every detail on the screen. How can I direct that out to a window i have shown below
I want it somehow to look like this
Sorry if the explanation is very long. I've been working on it for days.

Answer 1

Instead of using print like you would normally use to display results to the console you can use insert() on your text box.
EDIT:
First change:
area = Text(self)
area.grid(row=2, column=1, columnspan=2, rowspan=4,
padx=5, sticky=E+W+S+N)
To:
self.area = Text(self)
self.area.grid(row=2, column=1, columnspan=2, rowspan=4,
padx=5, sticky=E+W+S+N)
This way your text box is set up as a class attribute that we can use.
Then use:
self.area.delete(1.0, "end") # to clear text box
self.area.insert("end", your_output variable or string) # to insert content
