How to read console promp in pyWinauto

I'd like to control MobaXterm app with Python and trying to find a way for the code to read and fetch the string from the promp in each tab (terminal).
from pywinauto.application import Application
app = Application(backend='uia').start('"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mobatek\\MobaXterm\\MobaXterm.exe"').connect(title='val',timeout=100)
textEditor = app.val.child_window(control_type="Tab").wrapper_object()
print(textEditor.Edit.get_line(0))
textEditor.type_keys("^{TAB 2}")
textEditor.type_keys("test",with_spaces = True)
I tried to use get_line above, but it gives the following error:
print(textEditor.Edit.get_line(0))
AttributeError: 'TabControlWrapper' object has no attribute 'Edit'
Can you help me to find a way?

Get checkbox state and click accordingly using pywinauto

When i use below pywinauto code, i am getting error saying
from pywinauto.controls.win32_controls import ButtonWrapper
checkbox = ButtonWrapper(app.Dialog.child_window(title='Has Balance',auto_id='HasBalanceCheckEdit',control_type='CheckBox').TCheckBox.WrapperObject())
print(checkbox.GetCheckState())
Error:
raise MatchError(items = name_control_map.keys(), tofind = search_text)
pywinauto.findbestmatch.MatchError: Could not find 'TCheckBox' in 'dict_keys(['Has Balance', 'Has BalanceStatic', 'Static'])'

Based on the output you provided, next level spec TCheckBox is not needed. Just use this code:
checkbox = app.Dialog.child_window(title='Has Balance', auto_id='HasBalanceCheckEdit', control_type='CheckBox').wrapper_object()
Explicit ButtonWrapper instantiation is also not necessary because the control type is already auto detected by .wrapper_object(). That's why control_type='CheckBox' in your child_window can find the control.

used import pywinauto.controls.uia_controls to resolve the above code.

How can I resolve an error in Targetpath?

I am developing a small script that creates a chrome shortcut.
I want to have Facebook as homepage when this shortcut is used so I thought I could just append "www.facebook.com" to the target variable that is fed to shortcut.Targetpath, but I get an error. Here is my code snippet
desktop = winshell.desktop()
path = os.path.join(desktop, "Chrome.lnk")
target = r'C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe ' '"www.facebook.com'
wDir = r"%ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome\Application"
icon = r"%ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
shell = Dispatch('WScript.Shell')
shortcut = shell.CreateShortCut(path)
shortcut.Targetpath = target
shortcut.WorkingDirectory = wDir
shortcut.IconLocation = icon
shortcut.save()
and the IDE shows the following error:
File "C:\Python34\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 581, in __setattr__
raise AttributeError("Property '%s.%s' can not be set." % (self._username_, attr))
AttributeError: Property '<unknown>.Targetpath' can not be set.
How can I fix that?

First of all, Targetpath should contain an executable path, you shouldn't add the default homepage to that variable.
To have Chrome open a default webpage you should use the shortcut.Arguments which is what you're actually missing and you should fix shortcut.TargetPath.
So you should modify your code along the following lines:
target = r'C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe'
arguments = r'https://www.facebook.com'
and then
shortcut.Targetpath = target
shortcut.Arguments = arguments
In my answer, I assume all the rest is correct. Maybe you will need to modify a bit target and wDir.

iTunes win32com Python - AddTrack not working

I've been using the following code to try and create a new playlist in iTunes and a song from the main library - its example code i've found but i keep getting the following error when it runs. I've had a look through the iTunes COM interface documentation and it seems that AddTrack is only available under IITLibraryPlaylist but all of the example code Ive found is as below. Can anyone help>
Error: AttributeError: win32com.ge_py.iTunes 1.13 Type Library.IITPlaylist instance at 0x34035192 object has no attribute 'AddTrack'
Python Code:
import win32com.client
itunes = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch ("iTunes.Application")
mainLibrary = itunes.LibraryPlaylist
tracks = mainLibrary.Tracks
playlist = itunes.CreatePlaylist("Sonic Jams")
song = tracks.ItemByName('Teen Age Riot')
playlist.AddTrack(song)

in C#
Cast to IITUserPlayList
IITUserPlaylist rclibrary = (IITUserPlaylist)itunes.LibrarySource.Playlists.ItemByName["name"];
rclibrary.AddTrack(item);

i managed to get it using this code if anyone else needs it.
playlist = win32com.client.CastTo(itunes.CreatePlaylist("New List"), 'IITLibraryPlaylist')
song = tracks.ItemByName('Silver Rocket')
playlist.AddTrack(song)
