I have downloaded this and have got some parts working. I can get IDLE to run tkinter-test and sometimes my own hello world script.
I am confused about what to expect in Wince compared to Windows. I have trouble getting from IDLE to the shell and back without a long route through the settings/memory/running programs/activate. I cannot see how to get a shell without IDLE.
If you're having to use `settings/memory/running programs/activate` to swap the active screen, you probably need a utility like 'PocketNav' to make it easier.
The IDLE for pocketpc is a bit different from the 'normal IDLE' - and is developed separately from the actual port of python for windows ce.
If you just run `python.exe`, you should get a python shell.
What might be needed is an updated FAQ for beginners with a few screen shots. I have seen an old FAQ that has not been updated for a couple of years. Perhaps I could help write one. Where should it go? Can we have a "sticky" FAQ appearing.
What do you mean by 'sticky FAQ' - I've not heard that term before ?
Rats.. I can't help on this at the minute. My memory card broke and I'm waiting for the supplier to replace it. I didn't realise that sys.argv didn't work - but then I've never tried to use it on my PDA :-)It seems that there is no support for sys.argv[], so how does one add parameters? As an exercise I thought it would be fun to port "fortune". Not much success so far.
