Re: [taskcoach] [ANN] Release 1.3.17 of Task Coach
Le 2 juil. 2012 à 21:39PM, Frank Niessink fr...@niessink.com a écrit : Hi, We're happy to announce release 1.3.17 of Task Coach. This is a bugfix release. Users of the Launchpad PPA, please note that the 1.3.17 version of the PPAs is slightly different from the actual release (technical burden; there was a failed release yesterday and Launchpad does not allow overwriting a PPA of a given version). It does not include the calendar-related bug fixes.

Yes, but it only concerns new buyers and people who upgrade their firmware. Upgrading the firmware brings new functionnalities, but these are often already implemented in some homebrew app, so I'm staying at 1.50... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Anyway, I thought there might be someone in here interested to hear that python AND pygame have both been ported to it already (not by me). I've also ported some of our code to it (the bouncing cats demo I've shown at a couple of python conferences), and found it really nice to work with so far. The cats bounce at an acceptable (to me) framerate :-) Nice! Another toy to buy! As if I had enough pockets left :) Considering the threading limitations of Python, I assume it runs on the GP2X as if it were a single 200MHz CPU... How much RAM does this thing have ? I'm interested because I ported Python to the Sony PSP, which can run at 333Mhz and has 32Mo of RAM, and almost no OS overhead. I wondered if this setup would be enough for pygame to run... I know of at least one person who's trying to port pygame to PSP-Python... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

It seems a bit awkward to me. Anyway... what do you mean with much better ? It's much better: - Its portability is superior over PyGTK Mmmh, I haven't used pyGTK a lot so I can't really compare them but in my experience wxPython is very unstable on anything but Windows (in fact it's not wxPython's fault but wxWidget's of course)... Seems to have gotten better with newer releases. - Its look feel is superior over PyGTK (except in Linux) No, its look feel is the one of the underlying platform, though I think the term underlying platform has meaning only on Windows and MacOS. Of course a Windows user will be more at ease with a wx application than with a GTK one, but that doesn't mean Windows look feel is better than GTK (maybe it is, but I think it's a matter of taste). Under windows, only needs some dlls (they are its runtime), and works perfect. The same exe works on Win98, ME, 2000, XP. Of course that there are some differences between these OSs. I concur, wxPython is perfect for Windows apps. It's far less than perfect for Linux though, and I haven't tried it on MacOS yet.

Of course, there are various extensions for PyQt which let you build the user interface directly from the XML-based descriptions. Indeed, that's what I meant. I should have been a bit more explicit.

More than 5 years ago, i programmed in Visual Basic and Delphi and I still miss the wonderful ease of graphically creating the user interface in WYSIWYG mode. If you haven't tried it, you don't know what you're missing :) Do you miss the 75+ attributes classes and globals as well ? I'm still forced to work with Delphi from time to time (though whenever I can do something in Python instead, I do) and it makes me want to throw up. Sure, the designer is nice, but when you look at the generated code... Sorry for the harsh tone, I just think GUI builders are *evil*. Except maybe for QT Designer, which has a nice model where you implement callbacks by subclassing the generated classes. At least you don't have to look at the generated code. Anyway, if the OP is looking for a 'Python Delphi', I think Boa constructor is just that. I can't stand it :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
