OK I've heard eggs support versioning, but I've never actually seen it used --how do you specify which version of a package you want to use with setuptools? > Apple strongly encourages the use of application packages and the tools > provided for Python on OSX, i.e. py2app, make it easy for developers to > provide robust, stand-alone applications without dependencies on shared > libraries. py2app is fabulous, and I do use it. It makes lots of sense when delivering a substantial application, but not so much sense when you have a bunch of small utilities -- it just "feels wrong" to build a 25MB package to a 200 line utility. (and a lot of folks don't appreciate getting a 25MB email enclosure!) It's also a pain in the patootie when you're developing. I suppose this may be a time to take a good look at workingenv again... -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] _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
