[issue4485] fast swap of "default" Windows python versions

Daniel Harding added the comment: I have created a script that does essentially what Mark Tolonen suggests. When it is provided a script to run, it looks for a #! line and if it exists, attempts to use that to determine which version of python.exe to use. It also has the ability to install its

[issue6765] math.log, log10 inconsistency

Mark Dickinson added the comment: Well, that's floating-point arithmetic for you. log(x, y) simply computes log(x)/log(y) behind the scenes; since both log computations and the floating-point division can introduce errors, the result will frequently not be correctly rounded. I don't really

[issue6749] Support for encrypted zipfiles when interpreting zipfile as script

Peter Manis added the comment: I don't think I will be able to provide a patch. If I am correct this would live in Modules/zipimport.c and I do not have enough experience in C/C++ to add in the feature. If in the end zipimport ends up using Lib/zipfile.py then I can work on adding the featu

[issue6749] Support for encrypted zipfiles when interpreting zipfile as script

Gregory P. Smith added the comment: The decryption provided by the zipfile module is for the worthless 32-bit crc based "encryption" of zipfiles. I think promoting the use of that is a bad idea. zipfile can be used by people to get their data out of such files. We should not encourage them to

Nick Coghlan added the comment: You would also run in to the usual problems with any form of DRM: the password *will* exist in memory in order for zipimport to be able to use it, so anyone that really wants the password will be able to get hold of it. It also isn't as simple as just providing a

[issue6765] math.log, log10 inconsistency

steve21 added the comment: Mark, "... that's what log10 is there for". That would be a good point if the documentation said that. However, all the docs for log10 say is: math.log10(x) Return the base-10 logarithm of x. So we have a python function log10() which looks like it is redundant s

[issue6749] Support for encrypted zipfiles when interpreting zipfile as script

Peter Manis added the comment: My thinking behind this was not to be the ultimate security against someone getting the source, but more of a very high wall to keep out the majority of people. It seems like the best way to determine what file should be decrypted and when a password should be
