needs to run it in the Makefile).
After installing a newer framework Python the apple-installed Python can
no longer build extension modules, because they will inadvertantly be linked
against the newer framework. This script modifies lib/config/Makefile so
it will link extensions with "-undefined dynamic_lookup", which forestalls
this problem.
Will backport to 2.4 and 2.3.
and not part of a normal frameworkinstall) that installs Demo and Tools
and a readme file into /Applications/MacPython-2.3/Extras. This will
give people access to the demos and tools if they instal Python through
the binary installer.
honor them). Use this when building the MacOSX binary installer to
get group-writeable files.
Ths fix works for directories and executables, not for files just yet,
because of bug #735274.

Mac/OSX/Makefile. This makes framework builds work again on case
sensitive filesystems. Fixes bug #677753.
knows about plat-mac subdirectories, and configure adds a variable
EXTRAPLATDIR. These together take care of copying Lib/plat-mac to
the destination on darwin.
Adding plat-mac is still done with a .pth file which is only created when
you do a framework build. I'm not 100% happy with this, but fixing it
really needs a functional pythonw in non-framework builds, and I don't
think I can do that before 2.3a1 (but I'll try:-).
IDLE (it was a fatal error before)
- Shuffled a few things around to facilitate the experimental building
of MacPython for Jaguar's pre-installed python.
dialogs are now stored in Mac/Lib, and loaded on demand through macresource.
Not only does this simplify a MacPython based on Apple's Python, but
it also makes Mac error codes come out symbolically when running command
line python (if you have Mac/Lib in your path).
The resource files are copied from Mac/Resources. The old ones will disappear
after the OS9 build procedure has been adjusted.

Viewer recognize the Python documentation.
- Changed the externally visible name of Python.app to "Python" (was PythonW).
the framework, the MacOSX apps and the unix tools.
Most of the hard work is done by Mac/OSX/Makefile.
Also, it should now be possible to install in a different directory,
such as /tmp/dist/Library/Frameworks, for building binary installers.
The fink crowd wanted this.
actual script to run in case we are running from an applet. If we are indeed
running an applet we skip the normal option processing leaving it all to the
applet code.
This allows us to get use the normal python binary in the Python.app bundle,
giving us all the normal command line options through PythonLauncher while
still allowing Python.app to be used as the template for building applets.
Consequently, pythonforbundle is gone, and Mac/Python/macmain.c isn't used
on OSX anymore.
OSX framework build process. Things fixed/modified:
- the filesystem case-sensitivity test now works for builds outside
the source directory
- various other fixes for building outside the source directory
- python.app now has a target in the main Makefile
- WASTE and AquaTk are found more automatically
