This is a big one, touching lots of files. Some of the platforms aren't tested yet. Briefly, this changes the return value of the os/posix functions stat(), fstat(), statvfs(), fstatvfs(), and the time functions localtime(), gmtime(), and strptime() from tuples into pseudo-sequences. When accessed as a sequence, they behave exactly as before. But they also have attributes like st_mtime or tm_year. The stat return value, moreover, has a few platform-specific attributes that are not available through the sequence interface (because everybody expects the sequence to have a fixed length, these couldn't be added there). If your platform's struct stat doesn't define st_blksize, st_blocks or st_rdev, they won't be accessible from Python either. (Still missing is a documentation update.) |

This directory contains files for the RISC OS port of Python.
For more information about RISC OS see http://www.riscos.com/ .
This port is currently being maintained by Dietmar Schwertberger,
dietmar@schwertberger.de .
On http://www.schwertberger.de you may find compiled versions and libraries
as well as RISC OS specific documentation and extensions.
==========================================================================
Compiling:
1. Extract Files from archive directory 'Python-...' to a directory named
'!Python'.
2. Use a tool like Rename to change filenames from '*/[ch]' into '[ch].*'.
3. Create missing directories with 'amu cdirs'.
4. Build with 'amu'.
I've only tested Acorn C/C++ 5.06 and amu.
You will also need some additional libraries:
