Dear Richard, 2009/1/14 Richard Johns <soylen...@tbaytel.net>: > The full edition of Python(x,y) 2.1.9 contains all of the software you > mentioned(PIL, matplotlib, IPython, Enthought Tool Suite) while any of > these missing from the basic and light editions can be added as plugins.
Enthought Python includes a lot more pre-packaged Python libraries than Python(x,y) -- for example, the wxPython GUI library (unfortunately, in my surely biased opinion, the developers of Python(x,y) did not include wxPython in their distribution), and MPL Basemap toolkit. > Another thing I like about Python(x,y) is that it is updated frequently > so that you are always working with the most up-to-date software without > having to compile it yourself. Well, none of these pre-packaged distribution is really "up-to-date", as the development versions of the libraries (those available only via svn) will of course never be included.
