I am not sure if anybody already knows about it or not. Sorry if I am reposting.
http://www.portablepython.com/releases/portable-python-11/ The above URL has the releases of Portable Python for Windows. ATM I am downloading the Portable Python 1.1 built on Python 3.0.1. The best thing about the package is that you can install and configure python to run from a USB stick. It's gonna be very helpful for me because I pass my idle time at my University's MIS lab. I am not allowed to install any softwares there. Now, I can write python scripts at my off periods :) Python is pre-installed on Ubuntu and python has a better scope for cross platform development. I know Python 3 is backward incompatible and scripts written on version 3+ will not run on Ubuntu's (Ubuntu 8.10) default python installation (python 2.5). But don't be frustrated, they have portable python built on three different versions of python, namely - 2.5, 2.6 and 3. I am downloading the version 3 because it's loads smaller than the other ones. It contains only PyScripter and Rpyc where as the other versions have lots of extras added on. And one question, what version of python is pre-installed on Ubuntu 9.04 ? -- Abu Ashraf Masnun Grad Student, BBA, Khulna University. http://masnun.com -- Ubuntu Bangladesh mailing list ubuntu-bd@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd
