PyObjC has changed my life for the better, and I'm still just scratching the surface. The hard part is that I've become dependent on it, so when something doesn't work, everything I'm doing comes to a screeching halt. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your quick responses in those cases. > If you have two python plugins for the same program they should at > the very least use the same version of python, using different > versions of python may or may not work. OK, I generally rebuild my plugins with the latest versions of everything anyway, but good to know. > I'd have to study the plugin main code to be absolutely sure, but > AFAIK if plugins A and B both depend on package C they should > depend on the same version of C because at runtime they will both > use the version that's included in whichever of the plugins was > loaded first.

It's an input manager that loads plugins, so you can load arbitrary code into an existing application (kind of a gross hack, I know, but terribly useful when code injection wasn't working on Intel). The neat thing about it is how it is configured to only load plugins for certain applications, and only for specified versions of those applications. Having a meta-plugin for Python that did something similar would be cool. I think there is something like that for Quicksilver, but it would be nice to generalize for other plugins. Someday, in all my copious free time, I may even attempt it myself. %-) > Ronald Thanks again! --Dethe "the city carries such a cargo of pathos and longing that daily life there vaccinates us against revelation" -- Pain Not Bread, The Rise and Fall of Human Breath _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
