I do have GCC to compile with, but its proving very ugly to get the makefile remotely done right (I don't have much experience with GCC in that respect) . I'm trying to get numeric for my PPC. I've found a linux version, but I don't want to be restricted to that on my PPC. Any hints? Any good HOW-TOs on getting GCC to cross-compile? Thanks!

Murkworks - Based on Python2.2 I have been using the Validus binary ARM distribution on my Axim WinMobile 2003 and I decided to try Telion's osce module. It tries and fails to import win32process.

They should work you just may need those that where compiled for the 2.3 release. You see a .pyd file is a dll file thats compiled to work with python for each new major release (For example 2.2, 2.3, etc.) it needs to be recompiled.

The answer is probably *yes* - as it is just a port of the main python distribution. (I have no experience of this - so this is all conjecture of course). I think your main problem will be resource consumption on the limited platform. If you cut down the python interpreter to only include the bare essentials (get rid of some of the embedded modules etc) then it would be more viable. That may entail more work in the Python source code than you are up for though.

I just finished/managed installing python on my ppc. Instead of the common \Program Files\Python\Lib, I put the files in \iPaq File Store\Python, which works without problems. But installing Tkinter in a different location seems not so easy. >From what it looks like the dlls do search for the tcl files at ../tcl%s/library, so it should be possible to move the dlls, as long as they are in a subdirectory next to tcl8.4.3.

Message-ID: Hey guys, (I know, joining the list and posting right away.. terrible!) I've just gotten the urge to look for a Plucker distiller to run on the PoPC itself; this of course let to PythonCE since Plucker Desktop's distiller is itself written in python. I admit not knowing much about the state of py modules for PythonCE (if the tcp socket support is solid or not, etc), but I didn't see references to plkr or plucker in the halfway recent archives so I thought I'd post. If its not been done, and folks think theres a reasonable shot it may work, I'll give it a whirl. jeff -- "Have you played Atari today?"

PPC Python I think supports zlib, though there's no mention of any other packages it requires. Though perhaps image processing might need PIL? -- So, you run this on your pocket PC, the IR beam the plucker file to your palm OS device to view it? Strange -- Brad Clements, bkc at murkworks.com (315)268-1000 http://www.murkworks.com AOL-IM or SKYPE: BKClements We must come down from our heights, and leave our straight paths, for the byways and low places of life, if we would learn truths by strong contrasts; and in hovels, in forecastles, and among our own outcasts in foreign lands, see what has been wrought upon our fellow-creatures by accident, hardship, or vice. - Richard Henry Dana, Jr. 1836
