Tim Peters 55f826cd6a Update Windows installer for 2.1b2. 2001-03-21 06:09:14 +00:00
Tim Peters baa03e80f4 When building the installer, prompt for the location of the system directory
on the current machine.  Wise doesn't seem to know this itself, and it
varies across Windows flavors.

Tim Peters b3d6be9d93 Windows: Fallout from renaming the pydoc file. 2001-03-11 08:06:25 +00:00
Tim Peters 1eb0a92214 SF bug Win32: pydoc command isn't executable.
As the bug report notes, the Windows installer creates a useless pydoc
file in the base directory.  Changed the installer to rename it pydoc.pyw
instead.

Tim Peters b2a22f4533 Magic strings in both Python and the Wise installer define the registry key
to be used in Windows.  They got out of synch.  Repaired that, and added
comments to each one pointing at the other.

Guido van Rossum fe010e41cc Add a new item to the Python 2.1 start menu: "Module Docs".
This brings up Ping's pydoc server.

(XXX The icons for this and for IDLE seem screwed.  Oh well.)

Tim Peters 5f850ab47f Prepare Windows for 2.1 beta 1: installer dialogs and bump "build number". 2001-03-01 02:43:40 +00:00
Tim Peters d66595fe42 Renamed _testXXX to _testcapiXXX. Jack is my hero -- good call! 2001-02-04 03:09:53 +00:00
Tim Peters b16c56f0ba Teach Windows build and installer about new _symtable module/DLL. 2001-02-02 21:24:51 +00:00

Tim Peters ca873eddd5 Windows build: update for 2.1a2, + get ucnhash out of the installer. 2001-02-01 05:10:02 +00:00
Tim Peters 97c9640cc9 Windows: 2.1a1 changes so Python runs again. Note that the python20
subproject is gone, replaced by the new pythoncore subproject.

Tim Peters 78542ef830 Windows installer: update dialogs, program groups, etc, to 2.1 alpha 1. 2001-01-17 08:54:19 +00:00
Tim Peters 686924528c Prep the Windows installer for 2.0 final:
+ Bump the build number.
+ Changed app name in installer dialogs.
+ Fiddled dialogs to repair grammar and get rid of anachronisms (e.g.,
  "ProgMan" and "Program Manager" haven't made sense since Windows 3.1!).

Tim Peters 70d87d7329 Prep Windows installer for 2.0c1: title and build number. 2000-10-07 04:04:07 +00:00
Tim Peters 7b5af0460c Yet another new unique extension in the test directory. 2000-09-26 02:37:53 +00:00
Tim Peters 39fb28f759 Windows installer:
Don't ship debug .dll, .pyd or .lib files.  Saves space.
    Bumped the title to beta 2.
2000-09-21 07:50:36 +00:00
Tim Peters 0932cb4499 Windows installer: In the Start menu IDLE shortcut, explictly invoke the
pythonw.exe we just installed.  Making Windows key off the .pyw extension
instead screws people with multiple Python installations (reported more
than once on c.l.py).
2000-09-11 07:55:40 +00:00
Tim Peters 553d2a5dc4 Windows installer, reflecting changes that went into a replacement 2.0b1
.exe that will show up on PythonLabs.com later today:
    Include the Lib\xml\ package (directory + subdirectories).
    Include the Lib\lib-old\ directory.
    Include the Lib\test\*.xml test cases (well, just one now).
    Remove the redundant install of Lib\*.py (looks like a stray duplicate
        line that's been there a long time).  Because of this, the new
        installer is a little smaller despite having more stuff in it.

Tim Peters 0d416d3360 Windows build: install NEWS.txt; bump BUILD# to 3 in preparation for next
installer.
2000-09-05 17:14:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 87106b58cf Now that I've got real docs, redirect _DOC_ out of the Python 1.6 tree and
to the new docs.
Added a description to the Tcl/Tk file copies.
2000-09-05 06:23:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 7527e00058 Install LICENSE.txt and README.txt.
In the Welcome dialog:
    Reworded reference to non-existent "Exit Setup" button.
    Removed useless "Back" button.
    Changed "push" to "click".

Tim Peters 9a83b92c75 Guido pointed out that the "non-admin install" blurb got displayed
very late in the process when running on Windows 2000 without admim
privs.  Rearranged so that the admin check is done at the start
instead.  Added words to the end of the blurb to make it very clear
how to abort the install (wasn't obvious to me that "Cancel" was
the right thing to click).
2000-09-01 19:30:26 +00:00
Tim Peters f6f6fa237f Back off to HKCU (instead of HKLM) if user doesn't have "NT adminstrator
privileges".  Untested except on Win98SE (where Wise writes to HKLM).
2000-09-01 11:45:02 +00:00
Tim Peters b04e650a88 Added installation of w9xpopen.exe.
Removed installation of Lib/plat-win/*.py, because it no longer exists!
2000-09-01 07:54:04 +00:00
Tim Peters aff1284ed1 In readme.txt, make what's needed to build the "optional" subprojects
much more explicit.  Also document that we're moving to Tcl/Tk 8.3.2.
Simplify .dsp files by getting rid of useless include paths.
.wse file changed to reflect that my setup is different than Guido's:
if you *build* a Python distro using python20.wse, beware!
2000-08-25 06:52:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 93ff482c21 At Mark Hammond's request, removing registry key
Software\Python\PythonCore\2.0\Dll\Python20.dll -- it's no longer
needed according to him.

Note: not yet tested!
2000-08-22 14:04:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6424524fbe Thomas Heller noticed that the wrong registry entry was written for
the DLL.  Replace
 %_SYSDEST_%\Python20.dll
with
 %_DLLDEST_%\Python20.dll.

Guido van Rossum 7cee6ddcab somehow the 'Total Keys=1' disappears. No other changes. 2000-08-01 15:50:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ed2bf9c880 Oops.
- The Tcl minor version should be 3 -- we're now using 8.3.1.
- Remove the version number from yet another Tcl source file.

Note that Tcl should be installed in C:\src\tcl for this to work.
2000-06-30 14:55:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cce79a1582 Poke and hope for Tcl version: now settable through _TCLMINOR_
variable...
2000-06-30 14:50:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a1956e2f26 Move Wise install dir consistently to C:\Wise. Don't use %_WISE_% in
include, it doesn't seem to work.
2000-06-30 14:30:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f00562a962 Poke and hope for Tim...
(Change title to beta 1, change a few paths for typical Win98 setup.)
2000-06-30 14:20:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e4aa4ca698 Bump version to 2.0. 2000-06-29 22:32:08 +00:00
