  • t1python - A Type1 Font Renderer for Python

    ...PIL) Image objects, and allows for use of the fonts with PIL's ImageDraw class. Release 0.9.1 After not keeping with the 0.8 or 0.9 releases of t1lib, t1python will return shortly after the release of t1lib 0.9.1; expect it to arrive in early July (1999). It will be available from this page, and will contain support for all the new functions in t1lib, including the outline support. I plan on producing new documentati...

  • Python Data Plotting Solutions SIG Issues

    ...PIL, etc.). Quality of the software. Quality of the output. One possible goal for the API project is to develop a package- independent API for plots, which would produce reasonably similar results regardless of the plotting package used as a backend (PLPlot, Gist/Yorick, Gnuplot, etc.), in the same spirit as the interface defined by the DB-SIG. Package-specific extensions could naturally be provided as well. The goals for the new framework need to be...

  • What's new in Python 1.5 and beyond

    ...pile. The build process now builds a single library (libpython1.5.a) which contains everything except for the main() entry point. This makes life much easier for applications that embed Python. There is much better support for embedding, including threads, multiple interpreters(!), uninitialization, and access to the global interpreter lock. There is a -O option that removes SET_LINENO instructions, assert statements and code prefixed with if __debug__: .... (It still only makes a few percent ...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...pile code or set up complex links between libraries. Since everything is interpreted at runtime, we were able to continue rapid development without being bogged down by complex syntactic problems or slowed by compile times. The ability to quickly tailor a demonstration for a particular audience was also an advantage of Python. When presenting our project to a group of orientation and mobility instructors and their visually impaired students we were able to quickly create a map of North Carolina ...

  • EDU-SIG: Python in Education

    ...PIL, the Python Imaging Library adds image processing capabilities to your Python interpreter. This library supports many file formats, and provides powerful image processing and graphics capabilities. OpenOpt is a free optimization framework which builds upon Numpy. In addition to various numerical optimization packages, it includes: FuncDesigner - a tool to rapidly build functions over variables/arrays and get their derivatives via automatic differentiation. Also, one can perform integration, ...

(The name is supposed to be an acronym for New Import, but really referrs to the Knights Who Say Ni in the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail, who, after King Arthur's knights return with a shrubbery, have changed their names to the Knights Who Say Neeeow ... Wum ... Ping - but that's another story.) The ni module was a...
