...Python Mantra Still missing in our plan were the skills needed to code Python servers and clients. Most of the programmers in our team knew only a mix of Java, Visual Basic, and C++. While the J2EE group was working on solving J2EE problems, we invested a day in teaching Python to the rest of the team. Python wasted no time making its way into the hearts and minds of these programmers. It was a thrill to hear fellow programmers chiming in with our own Python mantra: "This is what I've alwa...
...incrementally replace older scripts. At ILM, speed of development is key, and Python was a faster way to code (and re-code) the programs that controlled the production pipeline. Python Streamlines Production But Python was not designed just as a replacement for shell scripting and, as it turns out, Python enabled much more for ILM than just process control. Unlike Unix shell scripting, Python can be embedded whole as a scripting language within a larger software system. In this case, Python co...
...pythonw" that runs your script with an interpreter living in such a .app bundle, this interpreter should be used to run any Python script using the window manager (including Tkinter or wxPython scripts). Most of Mac/Lib has moved to Lib/plat-mac, which is again used both in MacPython-OSX and MacPython-OS9. The only modules remaining in Mac/Lib are specifically for MacPython-OS9 (CFM support, preference resources, etc). A new utility PythonLauncher will start a Python interpreter when a .py ...
...operator.div, operator.idiv, operator.__div__, operator.__idiv__ (Only __truediv__ and __floordiv__ remain, not sure how to handle them if we want to re-use __div__ and friends. If we do, it will make it harder to write code for both 2.x and 3.x.) 'as' and 'with' are keywords. Absolute import is the default behavior for 'import foo' etc. Removed support for syntax: backticks (ie, x), <>. Removed these Python builtins: apply(), callable(), coerce(), execfile(), file(), reduce(), reloa...
