Cool. Send Guido a patch and rationale as to why it should be in the standard distribution.
I can't. It was a patch to version 1.5.0 which i don't have any more. It got clobbered when I installed 1.5.1 of course.
Frankly, the reason to install pythonpp is lost on me.
The you don't need to invoke it. But other people in the C++ SIG want to use C++ to extend Python. This is not the place to argue about it, they want it. :-) ------------------------------------------------------- John Skaller email: skaller@maxtal.com.au http://www.maxtal.com.au/~skaller phone: 61-2-96600850 snail: 10/1 Toxteth Rd, Glebe NSW 2037, Australia

*This* I understand. I understand why main() should be built with C++ to extend Python with C++ reliably. Is that the only reason for pythonpp? In that case, just build the standard interpreter with a C++-compiled main() and be done with it. -Fred -- Fred L.
