I'm new to Python and TurboGears. I haven't been able to find the answer to my question by Googling, possibly because "gzip" is everywhere on the web.
The context of my question is: deploying a TurboGears application onto a system with limited (flash) storage. I am aware of the various compressed filesystems available, but I'm considering other approaches. Is it possible to deploy a TurboGears application with all/some of it's source .py and .kid files gzipped to save space? e.g. If foo.kid can't be found, foo.kid.gz should be read instead. So long as the .kid and .py files do need to be accessed randomly, there should be no need to gunzip the file.) These are text files, so 3:1 compression may be possible. I have a feeling (as functions are first class objects in Python, like Ruby) that it may be possible to redefine a few IO functions to achieve this. Any hints would be welcome.
