[Pythonmac-SIG] MacPython 2.1.1 release available

[Jack Jansen]

[Folks: I'm sending this mail to pythonmac-sig only for today. Once I
have a few "it works" reports in I'l advertise it wider]

MacPython 2.1.1 is available. This is a bugfix release for 2.1, there
should be no reason to continue using 2.1 from now on.

Aside from the platform independent fixes (see www.python.org for a
list) here are the highlights for Mac specific issues:
- non-ascii characters in sys.path entries work again.
- On 8.6 and below the IDE wouldn't run, and Fm didn't work. Fixed.
- Dialogs and windows not created by Python are handled more
  gracefully.

The full list can be found in the Relnotes file in the distribution.

http://www.cwi.nl/ftp/jack/python/mac/MacPython211active.bin or the
full installer (8.5MB) from
