Hi, I've tried searching this list & googling around a bit -- trying to see if there is a Java-Webstart like alternative for Python, the closest approximate I've found is something suggested in this post:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2004-September/282837.html Is this still pretty much the state-of-art ? Or, is there some other, better, simpler, snappier alternative. My requirements fundamentally are to use the web-mechanism ("something" embedded in a webpage, that is able to detect whether particular (minimal) version of Python is installed on the client system, and whether my client-software (Python app) is installed or not, will possibly, first install Python (latest) if not installed, and then my client-software (Python app). If both are installed, it'd allow me to upgrade the python app (and/or Python itself prior to it). This seems to be a something that should be fairly common thing that folks might have to do! thanks & regards, Banibrata -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
