Eric3 for Windows.

Posted by adam.kruszewski at 4:31 PM in python

 

For few last days I had to work on Microsoft Windows operating system, so I start digging and looking for tools that I'm familiar for. One of the first things to find and install was of course Python and some IDE to easy writting scripts in it. As I'm used to work with Eric3 I was trying to find some binary install but it was not so easy to find them (QT library which Eric3 uses was "non-free" for some time for Windows platform), so for futher reference or someone also looking for it - here you can get: pyQT3 and Eric3 binaries for Windows.

Aaaaw! A Python in my Pocket!


 

Yesterday I have found a Python port for WinCE devices (accidentially, I was learning for today's exam /images/emoticons/wink.gif).
And I must say I'm impressed. It is Python 2.3.4 and there are also ported libraries such as TkInter, WxPython and PyGame (not fully ported but useable). And there is of course a small IdleCE available (with syntax highlighting!). IMHO it is not ready for production use yet (rather hudge overall size) but it will give me a perfect oportunity to really learn python /images/emoticons/happy.gif

Some links for curious PocketPC users:


You can get also my all-in-one bundle (PythonCE, WxPython, PyGame, TkInter, PySQLite, some examples documentation for all of those in html/iSilo/PDF formats) which should work from storage card out of the box.
  • 06-feb update: added xml library into bundle (it resides in _xmlplus namespace)
