I've just added a port of Python v2.5.1 to my site at http://os2ports.smedley.info
Python is a dynamic object-oriented programming language that can be used for many kinds of software development. It offers strong support for integration with other languages and tools, comes with extensive standard libraries, and can be learned in a few days. Many Python programmers report substantial productivity gains and feel the language encourages the development of higher quality, more maintainable code.
Thanks to Andy Macintyre for previous EMX ports of Python, and to Knut for adding support for building Python via configure.
This port has only had light testing - but works with BitTorrent here.
It is suggested to add something like the following to config.sys to help Python find it's files:
SET PYTHONHOME=e:/python25
SET PYTHONPATH=e:/python25/Lib;e:/python25/Lib/plat-os2knix;e:/python25/Lib/lib-dynload;e:/python25/Lib/site-packages
If you like this software and want to support continued ports, please consider donating via PayPal via the link at http://smedley.info/os2ports, or via the Mensys online store at http://www.mensys.net/os2ports
General feedback can be provided to
