I have uploaded an updated port of Python 2.1.1 to the incoming directories of the Hobbes (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu) and LEO (http://archiv.leo.org/) OS/2 software archives. The update contains the following changes:- - os.spawnv() and os.spawnve() use the native EMX routines rather than emulate them with fork(); - pythonpm.exe is now a real PM app with behaviour somewhat akin to the pythonw.exe in the Windows distribution. The distributed archives are: python-2.1.1-os2emx-bin-010812.zip (binary installation package, 3.0MB) python-2.1.1-os2emx-src-010812.zip (source patches and makefiles, 106kB) For those who already have the 010805 distribution, you only need to get python-2.1.1-os2emx-upd-010812.zip (250kB) Note that the update archive has not been uploaded to Hobbes or LEO. It is available at http://www.andymac.org/python.html, along with the above archives are if you can't find them at Hobbes or LEO. OS/2 users enjoy! -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."
