Yes, I'm with Just on this one. "Run as Python" was very cool when it was
the only thing available; it saved having to save the file, switch to the
finder, and drop it on Python. But now with Just's Awesome IDE, I never
use BBEdit and its extensions anymore either.
Hey, speaking of the distribution script, how's the distribution of
MacPython 1.5.2 final coming? I note that for other platforms, it was
released two months ago yesterday. Is there anything I (or others on the
list) can do to help?
Thanks,
