[PythonCE] Python 2.3.4 for StrongARM Pocket PC 2003

[Kim Ollivier]

I have downloaded this and have got some parts working. I can get IDLE to run tkinter-test and sometimes my own hello world script.

I am confused about what to expect in Wince compared to Windows. I have trouble getting from IDLE to the shell and back without a long route through the settings/memory/running programs/activate. I cannot see how to get a shell without IDLE.

What might be needed is an updated FAQ for beginners with a few screen shots. I have seen an old FAQ that has not been updated for a couple of years.
Perhaps I could help write one. Where should it go? Can we have a "sticky" FAQ appearing.

It seems that there is no support for sys.argv[], so how does one add parameters? As an exercise I thought it would be fun to port "fortune".
Not much success so far.
