ANN: Ajaxterm a web based terminal

[Antony Lesuisse]

Ajaxterm is a web based terminal, totally inspired by anyterm.org.

Ajaxterm written in python (and some AJAX javascript for client side).

It works almost exactly like http://anyterm.org/ (but feels faster IMHO).
However by being only dependent on python it is much more easier to install.

[ANN] Firedrop 0.2.1

[Fuzzyman]

Firedrop 0.2.1 has just been released.

http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/firedrop2/

A bugfix release.

* Removed mistaken dependency on `pythonutils
`_
* Fixed bug where cancelling the new site dialog would still report
that the
  site was created

**Firedrop2** is a cross-platform blogging tool written in
`Python `_. It keeps your blog source files on
your
computer, making it a *clientside* tool. This means you control your
blog,
and can easily move it from one server to another, with no risk of
losing data.
It also means you can manage your blog *offline*.

It is fully open source, and has all the features you expect from a
modern
blogging program :

* {acro;RSS;Really Simple Syndication} feed generation
* Categories
* Automatic archive generation
* A powerful set of plugins, including spell checker and emailer
* Entries can be made in text, {acro;HTML}, {acro;ReST}, textile,
sextile
  or markdown markup
* HTML templating system and macros for all sorts of tricks
* Built in {acro;FTP} capability for uploading your blog to a server
* Because it's written in Python, it is easy to extend Firedrop or
create new
  plugins for it

ftputil 2.1 released

[Stefan Schwarzer]

ftputil 2.1 is now available from
http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/download .

Changes since version 2.0
-

- Added new methods to the FTPHost class, namely makedirs, walk,
  rmtree.

- The FTP server directory format ("Unix" vs. "Windows") is now set
  automatically (thanks to Andrew Ittner for testing it).

- Border cases like inaccessible login directories and whitespace in
  directory names, are now handled more gracefully (based on input
  from Valeriy Pogrebitskiy, Tommy Sundström and H. Y. Chu).

- The documentation was updated. It's also on the website at
  http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/trac/wiki/Documentation .

- A Russian translation of the documentation (currently slightly
  behind) was contributed by Anton Stepanov. It's also on the website
  at http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/trac/wiki/RussianDocumentation .

- New website, http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/ with wiki, issue tracker
  and Subversion repository (thanks to Trac!)

  Please enter not only bugs but also enhancement request into
  the issue tracker!

Possible incompatibilities:

- The exception hierarchy was changed slightly, which might break
  client code. See http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/trac/changeset/489
  for the change details and the possibly necessary code changes.

- FTPHost.rmdir no longer removes non-empty directories. Use the new
  method FTPHost.rmtree for this.

What is ftputil?


ftputil is a high-level FTP client library for the Python programming
language. ftputil implements a virtual file system for accessing FTP
servers, that is, it can generate file-like objects for remote files.
The library supports many functions similar to those in the os,
os.path and shutil modules. ftputil has convenience functions for
conditional uploads and downloads, and handles FTP clients and servers
in different timezones.
