-Tkinter has been built with Tcl/Tk 8.3.4. Load the Mac source distribution
-from the tcl sourceforge site and build it. Build with CW7, but you will
-need CW6 to build the MDEF resource (or copy it from a binary
-installation). As of this writing the projects are CW6, so they need
-massaging to build with CW7, but this is a lot less work than applying
-all the workarounds for CW6 that the build instructions give. <P>
-
-Note that if you use a different release of Tcl and Tk than the ones
-I have used you may have to adapt the Python <code>tkresources.rsrc</code> file.
-This is easiest done by building <code>Tk8.3.shlb</code> and copying the TEXT, ICON
-and CRSR resources from it to <code>tkresources.rsrc</code>. This allows
-the <code>_tkinter</code> module to work without an installed Tk/Tcl on your
-machine. <P>
-
-Also note that the <code>_tkinter.ppc.slb</code> that is normally distributed
-in the <code>lib-dynload</code> folder is the one from the Imaging extension,
-which has some extra features needed by PIL (and which features should not
-hinder normal operation).
-
-</UL>
-
-Build first the Tcl library, then
-SimpleTcl (test it by typing <code>ls -l</code> in the window you get)
-then the Tk library, then SimpleTk (which can again be tested with
-<code>ls -l</code>). If this all worked you are all set to try
-building Python.

-interpreter and core library are linked together, so
-building the PythonInterpreterClassic and/or PythonInterpreterCarbon target
-in <code>PythonInterpreter.prj</code>
-will result in everything being built. The result, however, is an "Application

Only the :Lib:plat-xxxx should be missing. Otherwise go back to Installer Vise and

-How to install Python 2.2.1 on your Macintosh
----------------------------------------------
+How to install MacPython-OS9 2.3a1 on your Macintosh
+----------------------------------------------------
-This is a MacPython that can run on classic MacOS (from 8.1
-onwards) and natively on MacOSX. The installer tries to work out whether you can
-use the Carbon version or not. For Mac OS X users: this version of Python
-does not run from the command line, it is a pure "Mac only" app. Use the standard
-unix Python from the commandline, the two Pythons will be merged in the future.
+This is a MacPython that can run on Mac OS 8.6 with CarbonLib
+installed, Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X. It is the direct successor of MacPython 2.2.
-You should definitely read the Relnotes file too, and the section below about
-toolbox module reorganization. You should also read :Misc:NEWS, which lists
-the general (non-mac-dependent) new features of this Python release.
+For Mac OS X users: you are probably better off with the normal unix distribution
+of Python. That version also runs from the commandline, and if you do a framework
+build it will contain all the functionality of this version too. A prebuilt
+version will be available starting with the beta distributions.
-A special note about the active installer: do not background it, it may hang
-your machine. This is a general problem with Vise active installers, MindVision
-are working on it.
+If you are upgrading from a previous MacPython you should read :Misc:NEWS,
+which lists the new features of this Python release. As of this release
+the Mac-specific release notes have been moved to the "Mac" section of
+the general NEWS file.
+
+Two changes since 2.2 deserve special mention:
+- Most Mac-specific modules have moved to :Lib:plat-mac. :Mac:Lib now contains
+ only modules that are not shared with MacPython-OSX 2.3.
+- macfs is now a pure Python wrapper module around various modules in the
+ Carbon package. For 2.3a1 only this wrapping is incomplete: fsspec.SetDates()
+ does not work yet. If you encounter any other problems please report them.
------
Mac:Demo. The documentation is sparse, but it will have to serve for
now. The documentation is in HTML format, start with index.html.
-This installer installs MacPython for classic PPC MacOS, MacPython for Carbon
-(OS X, OS 9 or OS 8 with CarbonLib installed) or both, depending on your
-configuration. By selecting custom install you can bypass these tests and
-install what you want.
+If you want a MacPython that runs on systems without Carbon support (8.1
+up to 8.6 without CarbonLib) you should get MacPython 2.2.2.
If you want 68k support you will have get MacPython 1.5.2.
---------------
The optional parts in this distribution are
-- TK+PIL: Tkinter and support modules, plus Imaging, the Python image
- manipulation package (allows you to read, write and display images and
- do lots of operations on them).
- For Carbon MacPython you only get PIL: there is no Tcl/Tk for Carbon yet.
- This is the reason Classic MacPython is also installed on MacOSX: it
- allows you to run Tkinter applications, albeit in the Classic box.
+- PIL: the Python image manipulation package (allows you to read, write
+ and display images and do lots of operations on them). Tkinter is no
+ longer supported, a working Carbon version is Tk is not available.
- img: another imaging package. Has more file format support and is faster
than imaging, but has only limited operations on images. There is a bridge
between the packages.
- Numeric: the LLNL Numeric Python extension. All sorts of nifty operations
- on matrices and such. This is the most recent version from the
- sourceforge archive.
- Numeric has moved from Extensions to :Lib:site-python, by the way,
- see the release notes.
+ on matrices and such. This is version 22.
- Developers kit: all header files and some tools and sample projects
to get you started on writing Python extensions if you have CodeWarrior.
All these except the DevKit are installed with Easy Install.
-After the installer finishes it automatically launches the appropriate
-ConfigurePython applet, to finish configuration of your Python. If you
-run MacOS9 or later (or 8 with CarbonLib installed) you can switch
-back and forth between the classic and Carbon versions of Python by
-running either ConfigurePythonClassic or ConfigurePythonCarbon.

Moving your Python installation after installing is generally not a
good idea. If you have to do this anyway you should remove your
It is probably a good idea to run the automatic tests. Start
Python and "import test.regrtest ; test.regrtest.main()".
-test_frozen will fail in MacPython because of different handling on
-frozen modules. This should not be a problem in normal use.
+test_httplib fails with an unexpected output error,
+this problem is being investigated.
+
+test_socket fails, this problem is being investigated.
Three tests will fail on MacOS9 with MemoryErrors:
test_longexp, test_sha and test_zlib (on MacOSX these should pass).
Python as another (non-privileged) user you may encounter a problem with
not having a preference file: the symptom is failing to import all sorts
of standard modules. If you remove your per-user Python preference files
-(in ~/Library/Preferences) and then run PythonIntpreter once everything should
+(in ~/Library/Preferences) and then run PythonInterpreter once everything should
be fine.
