This is the 0.1 Alpha release pf pyxform, my interface between Python 1.3
And The XForms library.
You need:
A standard Unix, whit X-window, and Xpm library
I only tested it under Linux (it used to be a Slackware 3.0 ELF), but
should do well under anything XForms and Python work.
XForms 0.8
It's a free-for-non-commercial-use Widget library for X11
you can get it at:
http://bragg.phys.uwm.edu/xforms
BE CAREFUL: YOU NEED THE 0.80 beta, not the 0.75 official.
Python 1.3
It's a beautiful ,free, language.
Get it from
ftp://ftp.python.org
http://www.python.org
It's still fairly incomplete, mainly because of lack of free time, but it
is functional.
I tried to provide the easiest possible way to make a GUI for python under
UNIX, and think it's ready to be seen.
Sadly, there are no docs, yet, but the examples should be enough to get a
taste of the module, and the source should be readable.
To add it to your Python, put the *.c files in the Modules directory in
Python-1.3/Modules.
Add Modules/Setup.pyxform at the end of your Python-1.3/Modules/Setup file,
and edit it for your site.
BTW: If anyone likes it, email me at ralsina@unl.edu.ar
And for those non-unix people: Dr Zhao (The XForms author) say the next
version will have win32 support....
