Here is the description I have on the main SourceForge page:
"PyCrust is an interactive Python shell written in Python using wxPython. The latest stable version ships with wxPython (www.wxpython.org). The latest development version can be checked out of CVS. Packaged file releases are no longer available here."
Is that not clear?
Actually no - not if one is looking for something that says 'PyCrust' as something that ships *with* (as in a module/additional component to rather than subsumed *within*) wxPython. Since you asked Andrew
Funny, I had to read your comment and my description several times before I saw where my description was misleading. One challenge is that SF limits the description to 255 characters. Is this one better? "PyCrust is an interactive Python shell written in Python using wxPython. The latest release is now included with wxPython (www.wxpython.org). The development version can still be checked out of CVS. Packaged file releases are no longer available here." -- Patrick K.

I also updated the PyCrust wiki page (http://www.orbtech.com/wiki/PyCrust) to this: PyCrust, The Flakiest Python Shell PyCrust is an interactive, graphical Python shell, written by PatrickOBrien. PyCrust is similar to the shell that comes with IDLE, however, where IDLE uses the tkinter GUI toolkit, PyCrust uses the wxPython GUI toolkit. In fact, the wxPython folks liked it so much that PyCrust is now part of the standard wxPython distribution. Most users who want to use PyCrust should simply download and install wxPython from http://www.wxpython.org/. The latest development version of PyCrust is still available in the CVS repositor on SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pycrust. If you'd like absolute latest version, feel free to check out the files from CVS. One of the neat features of PyCrust is that it can be run standalone, like a regular desktop application, or it can be embedded in other wxPython applications. So a couple of lines of code adds complete, interactive Python access to any wxPython application, allowing you to manipulate your program while it runs. In the interest of giving due credit, note that PyCrust leverages the wonderful source code editing component called Scintilla (http://www.scintilla.org/). The wxPython wrapper of Scintilla goes by the name wxStyledTextControl. -- Patrick K.

Not one to leave well-enough alone, I changed it to this: "PyCrust is an interactive Python shell written in Python using wxPython. In fact, PyCrust is now included with wxPython (www.wxpython.org), so packaged files are no longer available here. But the latest development version can still be checked out of CVS" By now I'm sure everyone is tired of this thread. I promise this is my last post on the matter.
