I am new to python coming from the C/shell side. We have been experimenting with some code samples and now I'm looking at some command line argument processing. I find
getopt older optparse new in 2.3 argparse new in 2.7 I search around on some of my client systems and find lots of people in the 2.4 - 2.6 range. After some more digging I see that I can easy_install argparse on my development system. My question is will I be able to ship this to a customer? Can I create .pyc files so that the customer does not have to install the argparse module? If not, and I want to go back into the 2.3+ range, should I just use optparse? I guess what I am asking here is are there any guidelines/recommendations for shipping python programs to customers? Thanks in advance, Kris -- Mr. Kristen J. Webb Teradactyl LLC.
