Yes, after the first run the signature is valid but the contents isn’t clean anymore. That’s not nice, IMO. >>>> ...

On my system the call "python -m py_compile configure.py“ lasts about 50 msecs real time and the whole configure process is much longer. The lyx_2_4.py compilation takes 70 msecs. >>> On Windows, we compile the Python files at installation. I don't know if >>> that could help. > >> On Mac I'd prefer to avoid that.

Python 2.7 is part of the OS. And this is subject to change. Stephan -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
