HTML tarball and use it to create a documentation tree readable and
searchable with Apple Help Viewer. The documentation also shows up in
Project Builder (if you add Python.framework to your project).
in Python.app, and refer to it in Info.plist. This makes Apple Help
Viewer recognize the Python documentation.
- Changed the externally visible name of Python.app to "Python" (was PythonW).
This is a silly workaround for a rather serious bug in MacOSX: if you take
a long filename and convert it to an FSSpec the fsspec gets a magic
cooky (containing a #, indeed). If you then massage the extension of this
fsspec and convert back to a pathname you may end up referring to the
same file. This could destroy your sourcefile. The problem only occcurs
in MacPython-OS9, not MacPython-OSX (I think).
Closes bug #505562.
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.
in stead of prepending it, which messes up "import * from".
- A few ascii()s added again.
- Changed the getbaseclasses a little, but it still isn't perfect.
This patch makes inheritance for OSA classes work. The implementation is a
bit convoluted, but I don't immedeately see a simpler way of doing it.
I added calls to ascii() everywhere we output strings that may contain
non-ascii characters (Python has gotten very picky since the encoding
patch:-).
I also removed Donovan's different way of opening resource files: I don't
seem to need it.
at compile time: use PBGetCatInfoSync() to get FInfo data in stead of
GetFInfo. The latter doesn't work for folders. The former does, at
least on OSX, and insofar the info makes sense for a folder.
where it was: it is really a configuration file, not a normal module.
By moving it into Mac/Lib we can now also store the location of bgen
itself in there, which is needed because bgen isn't installed.
Builder carbon NIB files from Python. As-is, I may need to twiddle a few
things as he donated this long ago.
Donovan is now one of the four people in the world who know how to drive
bgen!
