[Python-Dev] possible urllib bug on Windows XP
I have a curious situation which might be a bug in urllib (Python 2.5 installed from a .msi file gotten from python.org) when running on Windows XP. (This is running inside a Parallels virtual machine, but I don't see how that matters, because, as you will see in a second, I'm able to access the Web server both by its IP address and name. Here's a screenshot of a console session: http://www.ncee.net/shane/urllib.png You can see from the screenshot: 1. This machine is able to ping the Web server's IP address. 2. I can even access the Web server via the DNS name assigned (www.nce.net) using wget.exe (from UnxUtils). 3. However, when I try to simulate wget.exe by using urllib, I get an error. Here's the urllib command (which, incidentally works fine from my MacBook Pro): python -c import urllib ; urllib.urlretrieve(\http://www.ncee.net/shane/test.py\,\test.py\;) I tested this on a Windows 2000 Server, and urllib behaved normally.

[Python-Dev] proposed which.py replacement
Trent Mick has a module called which.py that might make a nice platform-independent replacement for python2.5/Tools/scripts/which.py. http://www.trentm.com/projects/which/ Why which.py? |which.py| is a small GNU-which replacement. It has the following features: * it is portable (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Un*x); * it understands PATHEXT and App Paths registration on Windows (i.e. it will find everything that |start| does from the command shell); * it can print all matches on the PATH; * it can note near misses on the PATH (e.g. files that match but may not, say, have execute permissions); and * it can be used as a Python module. I also would be happy to have this be a replacement for the |which.py| in the Python CVS tree at |dist/src/Tools/scripts/which.py| which is Unix-specific and not usable as a module; and perhaps for inclusion in the stdlib. -- Shane Geiger IT Director National Council on Economic Education [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 402-438-8958 | http://www.ncee.net Leading the Campaign for Economic and Financial Literacy begin:vcard fn:Shane Geiger n:Geiger;Shane org:National Council on Economic Education (NCEE) adr:Suite 215;;201 N. 8th Street;Lincoln;NE;68508;United States email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] title:IT Director tel;work:402-438-8958 x-mozilla-html:FALSE url:http://www.ncee.net version:2.1 end:vcard ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
