===================================== PyCrust - The Flakiest Python Shell ===================================== Half-baked by Patrick K. O'Brien (pobrien@orbtech.com) Orbtech - "Your source for Python programming expertise." Sample all our half-baked Python goods at www.orbtech.com. What is PyCrust? ---------------- PyCrust is an interactive Python environment written in Python. PyCrust components can run standalone or be integrated into other development environments and/or other Python applications. PyCrust comes with an interactive Python shell (PyShell), an interactive namespace/object tree control (PyFilling) and an integrated, split-window combination of the two (PyCrust). What is PyCrust good for? ------------------------- Have you ever tried to bake a pie without one? Well, you shouldn't build a Python program without a PyCrust either. What else do I need to use PyCrust? ----------------------------------- PyCrust requires Python 2.2 or later, and wxPython 2.4 or later. PyCrust uses wxPython and the Scintilla wrapper (wxStyledTextCtrl). Python is available at http://www.python.org/. wxPython is available at http://www.wxpython.org/. Where can I get the latest version of PyCrust? ---------------------------------------------- The latest production version ships with wxPython. The latest developer version is available in the wxWindows CVS at: http://cvs.wxwindows.org/viewcvs.cgi/ Where is the PyCrust project hosted? ------------------------------------ The old answer was "At SourceForge, of course." The SourceForge summary page is still available at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pycrust/ The new answer is that there is no longer a need for a separate project. Simply install wxPython and you'll have everything you need. I found a bug in PyCrust, what do I do with it? ----------------------------------------------- You can send it to me at pobrien@orbtech.com. I want a new feature added to PyCrust. Will you do it? ------------------------------------------------------ Flattery and money will get you anything. Short of that, you can send me a request and I'll see what I can do. Does PyCrust have a mailing list full of wonderful people? ---------------------------------------------------------- As a matter of fact, we do.
