| This directory contains files for the RISC OS port of Python. | |
| For more information about RISC OS see http://www.riscos.com/ . | |
| This port is currently being maintained by Dietmar Schwertberger, | |

| On http://www.schwertberger.de you may find compiled versions and libraries | |
| as well as RISC OS specific documentation and extensions. | |
| ========================================================================== | |
| Compiling: | |
| 1. Extract Files from archive directory 'Python-...' to a directory named | |
| '!Python'. | |
| 2. Use a tool like Rename to change filenames from '*/[ch]' into '[ch].*'. | |
| 3. Create missing directories with 'amu cdirs'. | |
| 4. Build with 'amu'. | |
| I've only tested Acorn/Norcroft C/C++ 5.30 and amu. | |
| Python now uses the 32 bit libraries from Pace as well as the 32 bit | |
| version of OSLib. | |
| You will also need some additional libraries: | |
| DLK (patched version) | |
