...closely related and are normally installed or updated simultaneously. You should not attempt to mix-and-match Tcl and Tk versions. References to a specific version of Tk assume the corresponding version of Tcl is installed as well. The Python for macOS installers downloaded from this website dynamically link at runtime to Tcl/Tk macOS frameworks. The Tcl/Tk major version is determined when the installer is created and cannot be overridden. All current python.org installers link to their own ...

...closed-source product/project." A. Kuchling: "...The lack of open-sourceness is a concern. Also conflict of interest issues for me. But I'm hoping the PSF wouldn't be paying anything at all." S. Holden: "...I'd need to see some fairly detailed specifications." M. von Löwis: "How much effort would it be to setup a small demo installation?" [86] A. Kuchling will provide an overview of the software, MatrixMaxx 9.2 and provide an on-line demo to PSF board memb...
...close to reinventing the concept of markup languages, by adapting direct PythonCOM-to-Word interfaces from Mark Hammond's book Python Programming on Win32, that I decided there had be a better way to do this from a design and maintenance standpoint. A Web search provided me with a crash course on markup languages such as XML, HTML, and SGML. My search also provided insight into DocBook SGML, a popular open standard, and OpenJade, an open source package that can translate DocBook SGML into Word R...
...close. The treasurer's focus for the beginning of the year 2011 starts out with PSF Sponsor Member invoices: "My focus is currently on PSF Sponsor Member invoices, AR and AP reduction, and implementation of the financial aspects of the Associate Member program. With respect to the latter, I've begun setting up a new PayFlow Pro account using our new processor, since MatrixMaxx can't interface to our existing PayFlow account." 5 Progress Report The following board rep...
...close call, but I'm glad that such projects can finally be undertaken with the PSF. We are currently preparing the paperwork to get the contractual side setup and have in parallel started work on the content." As far as future plans are concerned for his marketing materials project, he reported: "If the project goes well, we'll follow up with a Python flyer, translated versions of the brochure and also consider creating marketing material more targeted at specific user groups or applic...
...closer to the event, I am sending new data as it comes. I will continue this until the expo hall is full/closed. I have sent information to the Sponsors regarding the Auction at PyCon 2013. So far I have only received two responses. After the holidays I will ping them again. We need to create more interest for this event, otherwise it will not be successful. I have begun to draft a holiday letter to the sponsors that Jesse will be sending out. I am urging Sponsors to have their registrations in ...
...close() method on file objects with closefd=False. The file descriptor is still kept open but the file object behaves like a closed file. The FileIO object also got a new readonly attribute closefd. Issue #3626: On cygwin, starting python with a non-existent script name would not display anything if the file name is only 1 character long. Issue #4176: Fixed a crash when pickling an object which __reduce__ method does not return iterators for the 4th and 5th items. Issue #3723: Fixed initializati...

...Closes bug #1039270. Updates for the email package: email.Utils.formatdate() grew a 'usegmt' argument for HTTP support. All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed: _encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(), Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode() New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(), Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to the Parser constructor. These will be removed...
...closed. Fixed a bug in this bugfix where flush() was called for a read-only file. imputil: added an uninstall() method to the ImportManager. Canvas: fixed bugs in lower() and tkraise() methods. SocketServer: API change (added overridable close_request() method) so that the TCP server can explicitly close the request. pstats: Eric Raymond added a simple interactive statistics browser, invoked when the module is run as a script. locale: fixed a problem in format(). webbrowser: made it work when t...

...closely monitored by Meetup. D. Goodger asked about obtaining an umbrella group discount. J. Rush: "I'm still talking with meetup.com; they don't make it easy to sponsor groups of groups. Been pushing them for years." A. Kuchling: "Is there some criteria we should set for reimbursement? E.g. meetings of a certain size/frequency." D. Goodger agreed S. Holden: "We could have criteria for continued funding, but at $50 per group per year we don't want to over-administer t...
...closely associate a commercial product with Python. In order to support the Python community, we do make exceptions to the above rules for the following use cases under the premise that these use cases: have Python as their main focus and are intended to support and further the use of the Python programming language, always use the logo associated with text differentiating them from the Python programming language itself, and include a disclaimer mentioning the PSF trademark and a non-affiliati...
...closely tied to the previous agenda item, the Board has decided to place it on hold until a consensus has been reached on the new break-down of sponsor membership levels. 9 Modify PSF Opening Mission Statement S. Holden: "You'll be aware that there's a "diversity statement" in preparation. The mission statement tweak is an acknowledgement that we want a diverse community." RESOLVED, that the PSF Mission Statement be modified to read "The mission of th...

...closer to 73% full. This conference will definitely sell out before it starts. We are at 1/3 of where we need to be in tutorial sales in the end. They will definitely pick up pace in the coming months. Childcare: We have signed a contract with Kimberlee for only the three main days of the conference since attendee interest in this has dwindled since the summer of 2013. Sponsor Reg and Housing: This is continuing. I am assisting CTE with special sponsor requests and issues. Every time a new batch...

Just put them on > the Todo list for Flying 1.0 or Circus 0.1 [Then I'll contract > your daugther to convert my scripts to the new style ;-)].
