Issue 1190: Windows rants& sugestions. (original) (raw)

TCL Perl , resources , sometimes with the python tool kit , i'd want certin compontents removed , namely tcl/tk ; on a custom Installer Do you have windows TCL/TK (YES/no) (Yes) and the gui option panel to repoiit items add perl ruby ponteirs etc.

Alt Python (type) I/E Unix or Cygwin ALT perl , Iterix is a real sweet set of tools ,

But mainly Adding Path Statments and getting rid of other Python interpriters, and just using main python, version'd python is nice but , often force C:\Python

for windows i just wish you could index other dirs of python code , etc and compile them to pyc with a right click option.

some programs use full blown python stubs , anyhow with a path option etc , be nice to not have orphaned stubs, etc.

Juice and others use older python compiler etc, a script to hunt down compile > default python = C:\Python\python.exe etc. also lib paths on python for windows \python\lib-ver keep scripts for migration. etc. just for sake of argument give upgrade ease and less python25; 25; 26 ; 30b folders and for testing can put the stable into main |python|bin beta into |python|testing|bin etc.

thouse are my few irks with windows , having main tcl path specified is resonable because with a utility it is eassy to script-name.tcl > filename.dll , wich offers some speed.

I dont program to much but , I do try not to have wastes of disk space. just the option of setting TCL/TK , perl ruby etc for python to call from default location would be a plus , and would save some disk space. and if the tcl/tk were updated wouldnt break links. and if jsee or just the java plugin were installed to have system vabiles etc for usage. PATHEXT add item for executable , can add ruby perl etc to it as well for py or pyc, this too would force a default python interpriter, option. the curent python for widows is alot faster than the older mini ones in other apps.

anyhow thats my 2 ยข cents
