PyOXIDE 0.6.2 is now available for abuse.  There aren't a lot of 
changes since 0.6.1, but it now properly handles PyObjC not being 
isntalled, allows for command-period to stop running scripts, adds 
unicode support for find regex's and dramatically speeds up scrolling 
large files (and a couple other bug fixes).  There are several 
important reasons for it's release however:
	This will be the last version that compiles under Project 
Builder (everything will be upgraded to XCode for the next release, 
but targetting 10.2 SDK so should still run under 10.2)
	I wanted to get the latest stuff out before WWDC (anybody else going?)
	There will be internal architectual changes for the next 
release (I'll skip boring you with "unique line identiers")


PyOXIDE 0.6.2 has only been tested with 10.3, but should work with 
10.2 (assuming it can find the python framework).  The sources are 
built using XCode 1.1 on 10.3, but again, probably would compile on 
10.2 with Project Builder (since they haven't been converted yet to 
XCode native projects).

PyOXIDE 0.6.2 is now available on my idisk (as PyOXIDE_0.6.2.dmg):

	from the pather finder, "connect to other public folder" and 
type in "gandreas"
or
	http://projects.gandreas.com/pyoxide/


If you want to build from source, you'll need to get 
PyOXIDE_Src_0.6.2.dmg, and IDEKit_0.2.2.dmg (also built XCode 1.2 on 
10.3 but should build with ProjectBuilder on 10.2).  IDEKit_0.2.2.dmg 
is found either on the idisk above or 
<http://projects.gandreas.com/idekit/>  PyOXIDE source is covered 
under a BSD-style license.  The IDEKit framework is covered under 
LGPL, so you can freely link it in other projects.

Note - these archives are now be automatically created by a series of 
shell scripts, so hopefully they package up everything needed, and 
not too much that isn't, and I'll be able to crank out updates easier 
in the future.

If you have problems, questions, enhancment request, etc, please 
submit request at <http://bugs.gandreas.com> (hopefully it should 
work - you'll have to make a new account, but the PyOXIDE database is 
publically available), and feel free to post 
questions/comments/public discussion to <http://boards.gandreas.com>
