No. As BartlebyScrivener wrote you shouldn't do that. You can easily install ActivePython side-by-side with another Python install on Linux. Additonally, how does Active State's Komodo IDE vs. the eric3 IDE unler SuSE Linux v. 10.i? Addionally, is the eric IDE (version 3) an acceptible IDE or are there more easy and more productive IDE's for perl? *I* like Komodo, but then I am biased because I am one of its developers. :) I presume you meant Python instead of Perl there, but if not, Komodo does support Perl as well as Python (and PHP, JavaScript, Ruby, Tcl and XSLT too). This is a pretty good review of Python IDEs (although note that most, if not all, of the IDEs reviewed there will have advanced a few versions). http://spyced.blogspot.com/2005/09/review-of-6-python-ides.html Komodo 4 is currently under public beta (Komodo 4 beta 1 is out now and beta 2 should be released later this week).

Active State and Komodo...
Hello all, I was wondering the differnced there were betwee Active State's python and the open source version of python. Would I have to unistall my opend souce python? Additonally, how does Active State's Komodo IDE vs. the eric3 IDE unler SuSE Linux v. 10.i? Addionally, is the eric IDE (version 3) an acceptible IDE or are there more easy and more productive IDE's for perl? I'm urining Gnome v. 12.2.2 and Eric v 3.8.1 Thanks Steve -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The biggest difference at the moment is that ActiveState is still using Python 2.4.3 in their distribution. They should be coming out with 2.5 soon. Sounds like you are running Suse? So you already have some version of Python, right? You can search this group at comp.lang.python on Google Groups--try python versions linux--or something like that--but the issue you need to watch out for is running two different versions on Linux. Long and short, you don't want to uninstall the version of Python that came with your Suse, because other programs on your machine probably use that particular version. It's easy to install an ADDITIONAL distribution of Python and run it separately, but again. Search the list for how to do that, and how to run them separately once you do. I'm just moving to Linux myself, so can't provide the expertise. Unless there is some killer feature of 2.5 you need, I would just use the Python that came with your Suse. rd -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Perl? You're on a Python list? Anyway, the subject of IDEs comes up every other day. If you want comparisons or discussion of Eric and Python, search the group for Eric IDE http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/search?q=eric+idestart=0scoring=d; If the link breaks, use: http://tinyurl.com/yxy8vv I use vim 7.0 and Komodo myself. Both are cross platform. You'll see hundreds of different opinions here. rd A couple of months in the laboratory can save a couple of hours in the library. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
