I mentioned this in another thread - it was a boo-boo on our side.
It is fixed, and will be available in a newer, better non-zero format soon.

Does it include a XPhoton compatible tkinter interface ? Sources ?

BTW … the sources of Python 1.5.2 and 2.0b2 are available at
www.python.org. They are compiling flawles with qcc … configure with
‘CC=qcc configure’. If you include thread support … there is a
small(?) problem with the signal module: alarm() doesn’t generate
SIGALRM :frowning: . With 2.0b2 … mmap makes problems besides some others …

I definitely prefer the newer, non zero format for software, although the
non zero format was very compact.

also, will the updated version of python be V1.5 or the newer 1.6?

thanks

:wink:

1.6 is just an intermediate step … the newer one is the 2.0b2 release.
So don’t start with 1.6 …
