as a side benefit, this might help folks using py2exe, py2app and friends -- as it stands all those sub-modules need to be included in your app bundle regardless of whether they are used. I recall having to explicitly add them by hand, too, though that may have been a matplotlib.numerix issue. > but leave the list of submodules in "__all__" so that "from numpy > import *" works. Of course, no one should be doing that anyway.... ;-) And for what it's worth, I've found myself very frustrated by how long it takes to start up python and import numpy. I often do whip out the interpreter to do something fast, and I didn't used to have to wait for it. On my OS-X box (10.4.11, python2.5, numpy '1.1.1rc2'), it takes about 7 seconds to import numpy! -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
