2008-05-19 Thread Graham Horler
Hi all, I created a patch on 2007-08-15: http://bugs.python.org/issue1775025 I wonder, will it just stay in patches unnoticed until it has its very own associated bug report to keep it company? Thanks, Graham ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@py

Are we scraping the __bottom__ of the English language __barrel__? Perhaps someone here can draw some inspiration from __monty__ python's flying __circus__. It would be nice to have a name with a pythonic __ground__. Unfortunately that show is not my __staple__ entertainment, and although I hav

[Python-Dev] Proposal for new 2to23 tool

2007-11-11 Thread Graham Horler
I have been developing in Python since 1.5, and now have to support 2.1 as a minimum version. I do like to keep my code runnable on newer versions however, and am considering the feasability of forward compatibility with Python 3.0. I also notice the Leo[1] project could use some assistance with

Re: [Python-Dev] MacOSX -framework options and distutils weirdness

2007-10-10 Thread Graham Horler
I would be inclined to move gcc to gcc-real (for example), and create a script called gcc which dumps all environment variables, and command-line arguments and a time-stamp to /tmp/gcc., e.g.: #!/bin/sh FN=/tmp/gcc.$$ echo -n "date=" > $FN date '+%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S.%N' >> $FN echo -n "cmdline=" >>
