Hi! Today I suddenly needed the tiger hashsums from python - it's not included in the standard distribution and I couldn't find it somewhere. So I thought that's it's maybe time again to contribute :-) It was a quite straight forward task to write a wrapper that is able to calculate such hash-sums from Python, besides the tiger.c/tiger.h it's only a few lines of code. It runs perfect under Linux with distutils - I guess someone who knows windows better has to look for a windows port beacuse of the 'long long' integers (shouldn't be too hard) ... But at least for me it's really useful:
Are you interested to get the code, maybe for the next release? Shall I send it to someone of you developers? Or upload somewhere to your project page? Or just send it here as attachment? Just let me know. Best regards! Tino

The LONG_LONG macro is defined in Python's Include/pyport.h file. Just use it instead of 'long long'. On Windows I think 'long long' is spelled '__int64'. Skip

Dear Tino, We are usually reluctant to add modules to the Python core distribution, until there is some user community interested in that module. Until then, I recommend you submit your module to the Vaults of Parnassus, and announce it to comp.lang.python.announce. Regards, Martin
