IDLEfork Installation Notes
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
IDLEfork requires Python Version 2.2 or later.
|
|
|
|
There are several distribution files (where xx is the subversion):
|
|
|
|
IDLEfork-0.9xx.win32.exe
|
|
This is a Windows installer which will install IDLEfork in
|
|
..../site-packages/idleforklib/ and place the idefork startup script
|
|
at ..../scripts/idlefork. Rename this to idlefork.pyw and
|
|
point your launcher icons at it. Installation is as idlefork
|
|
to avoid conflict with the original Python IDLE.
|
|
|
|
IDLEfork-0.9xx-1.noarch.rpm
|
|
This is an rpm which is designed to install as idleforklib in the
|
|
/usr/lib/python2.2 tree created by the Python2 rpm. It requires
|
|
python2 and python2-tkinter rpms. It installs as idlefork to avoid
|
|
conflict with Python IDLE.
|
|
|
|
IDLEfork-0.9xx.tar.gz
|
|
This is a distutils sdist (source) tarfile which can be used to make
|
|
installations on platforms not supported by the above files.
|
|
It is configured to install as IDLE, not IDLEfork.
|
|
|
|
Unpack in ..../Tools/, cd to the IDLEfork directory created, and
|
|
<python setup.py install> to install as IDLE. If you don't want to
|
|
step on Python IDLE, it is also possible to simply run <python idle.py>
|
|
to test in the IDLEfork source directory without installation. In this
|
|
case, IDLEfork will not be on your PATH unless you are in the source
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
See README.txt for more details on this version of IDLEfork.
