stackless is a replacement for the standard python interpreter (aka cpython), so getting it to work with Maya might be tricky. you'll have to overwrite the python interpreter in the maya installation directory, or play with the PYTHON_HOME environment variable. it may "just work" since it advertises that "Stackless should be 100% compatible with Python code previously written against regular Python, and also with any extensions previously compiled against regular Python". however, it does specifically say there are problems with PyQt due to its use of sip, so hopefully PySide will be more compatible.
there is also pypy which is yet another cpython replacment which is focused on all around speed. it also has support for a stackless mode. the docs state "PyPy can expose to its user language features similar to the ones present in Stackless Python". so it sounds like it is its own implementation of this concept. if anyone gets either up and running in maya let us know how you did it. -chad -- view archives: http://groups.google.com/group/python_inside_maya change your subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/python_inside_maya/subscribe
