Dear people, I would like to announce new release of Portable Python based on Python 2.7.5
Included in this release: ------------------------- PyScripter v2.5.3 NymPy 1.7.1 SciPy 0.12.0 Matplotlib 1.2.1 PyWin32 218 Django 1.5.1 PIL 1.1.7 Py2Exe 0.6.9 wxPython 2.9.4.0 NetworkX 1.7 Lxml 2.3 PySerial 2.5 PyODBC 3.0.6 PyGame 1.9.1 PyGTK 2.24.2 PyQt 4.10.1 IPython 0.13.0 Pandas 0.11.0 Improvements since last release: -------------------------------- Upgraded core Python version to fix issues discovered in Python 2.7.4. Snippet from Python 2.7.5 release announcement: > 2.7.5 is the latest maintenance release in the Python 2.7 series. You may be > surprised to hear from me so soon, as Python 2.7.4 was released slightly more > than a month ago. As it turns out, 2.7.4 had several regressions and > incompatibilities with 2.7.3. Among them were regressions in the zipfile, > gzip, > and logging modules. 2.7.5 fixes these. In addition, a data file for testing > in > the 2.7.4 tarballs and binaries aroused the suspicion of some virus > checkers. The 2.7.5 release removes this file to resolve that issue. Installation and use: --------------------- After downloading, run the installer, select the packages you would like to install, select the target folder and you are done! In the root folder of the distribution you will find shortcuts for selected applications. Some of the most popular free Python IDE’s come preinstalled and preconfigured with Portable Python. How to use and configure them further please consult their documentation or project sites. Download location: http://portablepython.com/wiki/PortablePython2.7.5.1 Warning: Default installation installs all packages - make sure to review packages selection during installation process as it can take quite some time to install 545MB on the USB drive(s). Please use "feedback and support" section on the portal to request new packages or to report issues. Keep pythoning !
