AMIGAPYTHON 1.5
RELEASE 1.5.2 (build 4)
Conversion and Amiga specific code by Irmen de Jong.
(Original code by Guido van Rossum and others)
* WHAT'S THIS?
This is the Python interpreter (version 1.5.2) for AmigaDOS. If you don't
know what Python is and what it can do for you, visit the Python homepage
at <http://www.python.org/>.
* WHAT'S IN THIS ARCHIVE?
- Python 1.5 binary for 68030+FPU
- Installer® installation script (in Dutch and English)
- Some demo programs & icons
- Python library modules
- Some documentation, mostly on Amiga features
* MINIMAL SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
- 2 megabytes of memory.
- Harddisk recommended.
- Kickstart 2.04
- 68030 CPU, FPU required
- For networking functions: AmiTCP (Version 4)
(version 3 might work too, but I haven't checked this)
- For user authorisation stuff: usergroup.library from AmiTCP or
MultiUserFileSystem.
* CHANGES SINCE THE PREVIOUS VERSION (version 1.5.2 build 1):
- Prints correct string when command `exit' is issued at the prompt.
- Fixed some missing 1.5.2 issues, like the os.error exception type.
- A new time.strftime which passes the test.
- Fixed amiga.crc32 function to comply with CRC32 standards.
The following modules are built-in in this release:
ARexxll Doslib amiga array binascii cPickle cStringIO cmath crypt
environment errno grp imp marshal math md5 new operator pcre pwd regex
rotor select sha socket soundex strop struct sys syslog time
Check the README file in the archive for more information. You can also
find more information on Python at my AmigaPython Web page;
<http://www.bigfoot.com/~irmen/python.html>
IMPORTANT:
Please let me know if you find any errors, encounter problems, or have any
suggestions! But, as I work on this in my spare time, don't expect
miracles...
SUGGESTION:
Unpack the archive to where you want the program to be. The installation
will then be performed much quicker.
SOURCE?
Also on Aminet, where you got this: dev/lang/Python152_Src.lha.
