AMIGAPYTHON 1.5
RELEASE 1.5.1 (build 18)
April 28, 1999.
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 1.5.1) 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 (sorry, no 68020/IEEE)
- Installer® installation script (in Dutch and English)
- Upgrade Script for fast upgrade of previous version
- 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.
- NOTE: I-Net225 support (instead of AmiTCP) is available, but beta.
An I-Net version can be downloaded from the AmigaPython homepage.
* CHANGES SINCE THE PREVIOUS VERSION (version 1.5.1 November 14 1998):
- Fixed bug in ARexx code.
- Fixed strftime function.
- Beta I-Net225 version is available.
- Added configuration options to the ARexx.py and arexxll modules:
setstringmsgs and settokenizeline.
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 socket
soundex strop struct sys syslog time
timing
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/Python_Src.lha.
