[Updated 30 March 2004]

Alpha 2 release of Amiga Python can be found here:

http://www.monkeyhouse.eclipse.co.uk/amiga/python/

(Be sure to Save Target As - my ISP's webserver doesn`t like the LHA MIMEtype)

Also, it`s 3MB each, so I don`t know how long my server`s going to hold... Will get it on Aminet ASAP (can someone post the current method for uploading to Aminet? most of the upload capable mirrors don't work anymore and the email method doesn't either)

New in this release:
- xml support
- bzip2 support
- zlib (zip) support
- working socket module
- working amiga (os, with more complete posix emulation) and amigapath (os.path) modules
- Fixed st_size bug

Requirements for this build are 68020, OS3.0 and AmiTCP/Genesis, which I think is fair these days.

But if you have SAS/C you can grab the source and build yourself a 68000, OS2 no-network version.

Have fun.

If anyone gets errors about "extsep" being missing when they try and run the tests, here's a quick fix.

In the file

lib/python2.1/amigapath.py

Add the line

os.extsep = extsep

after

extsep = '.'

Don't forget to assign Python: to the directory you put it the program and it's libraries in!

Also can anyone recommend a good HTML to AGuide converter that will handle the Python docs???

People,

For the next release I am preparing the included zlib (zip) and bz2 modules, and am porting the latest versions of both (zlib is easy - it builds with sas/c out of the box, with smakefile thanks to Osma Ahvenlampi)

I will release these ports separately too.

Anyone know any other such libraries that generally need their latest versions ported?

Update on progress:

I've now integrated z.lib and bz2.lib modules, and fixed the tuple object st_size error that causes many of the test to fail - result that the test suite passes a lot more tests now.

Remaining is to fix the XML, Unicode and command line arguments problems then it'll be fit for an alpha 2 release.

Progress update

Now integrated the latest version of expat XML library - got to round off a few rough edges as I want to make RSS.py work so we can have an RSS reader on the Amiga though.

Will also be releasing my z.lib bz2.lib and expat.lib ports separately for others to use.

Nice work! When can we expect the new alpha (which hopefully have the command line bug fixed)? days or weeks?

Thanks for a great port of a great language!

@zacc

I hope to nail the command line bug and unicode bug (and one other I found, where lookuperror doesn't know the "ignore" function) over the weekend. If I can't, I'll probably release what I've got so far as another alpha anyway.

Just wanted to give you (another) pat on the back. This is awesome. Python is my language of choice on any platform.

Guess no-one tried to download it, since the URL was broken, but anyway it's fixed now so you can find it if you want it.
