hi Marcus, Thanks again for the quick reply.
It's good to know that I won't get py3 out of windows GRC. I'll switch to linux for now. I've not worked with it before, but I'm not afraid either 😉. Most important for me is to avoid Py2 if possible. I'll keep an eye out for possible windows updates in the future. Should you need a guinea-pc, feel free to contact me. Thanks for the info, Jerom ________________________________ Van: Müller, Marcus (CEL) <muel...@kit.edu> Verzonden: donderdag 20 februari 2020 16:24:49 Aan: michael.dick...@ettus.com; Jerom Maas - LR CC: discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org Onderwerp: Re: GRC 3.8 Output language Py2 or Py3 (Windows) Ha! Don't get me wrong, it's awesome you're using Windows. Now, I don't think Geof came around to building a Python3 GNU Radio, so you're out of luck for now. You could try your hands on doing that yourself – follow the link to the Github repo with the source building scripts – but I'd doubt it's easy :( Alternatively: Use WSL to run GNU Radio 3.8 on Ubuntu 19.04 or 19.10[1] under windows, then install GNU Radio 3.8 [2]. Install an X server for windows. I've had a student that did that and used VS Code on windows to target his WSL installation, it worked well. Or, really, just install a modern Linux (eg. Ubuntu 19.10, Debian) natively or in a VM for now :) As of now, there IS concentrated efforts to improve the windows situation, but to be honest, it's a strange and confusing and frustrating world for a lot of us, and I don't even have a single Windows machine...
