I have released a port of Python 2.0 to OS/2 using the EMX+GCC compiler/runtime. ZIP archives containing the binary installation package (python-2.0-os2emx-bin-010331.zip, 2.6MB) and the source patches + makefiles (python-2.0-os2emx-src-010331.zip, 425kB) have been submitted to the Hobbes (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/) and LEO (http://archiv.leo.org/) OS/2 software archive sites. Support is included for GNU Readline, GNU GDBM (v1.7.3), BSD DB (v1.85), zlib, curses and expat via dynamically loadable extension modules. The majority of standard Python extension modules are also dynamically loadable. The port has been built with multithreading enabled. The port incorporates Fredrik Lundh's sre updates, as well as several official (ie available from http://www.python.org/) patches to standard library modules. The README file is available at http://www.pcug.org.au/~andymac/python20_os2emx_readme.html. The ZIP archives are also available via http://www.pcug.org.au/~andymac/software.html, however this site has limited bandwidth so please get them from Hobbes or LEO where possible. OS/2 users, enjoy! -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."
