The new Saluki Custom Builder that will be released in saluki-013 should be very helpful. Saluki-13 should be out in a couple of days. (yes, with kernel 3.2).

Thanks Tman!

I am pleased with how it's turned out. By the way, I did look at Exprimo, but it wouldn't make the soundcard on my pc work, so that kind of swung it for Saluki!

@Jemimah - thanks for that. I'll probably hold on for that and rebuild from that version. I am now running from a fresh frugal install of "SalukiPy". The Pythons and Pygames are working properly. The only thing I don't know how to do is to keep the wallpaper and launcher looking as they should.
Here's a list of the Python tutorials to be included in this version:
A Byte of Python (Swaroop)
Dive into Python (Mark Pilgrim)
Making Games and Invent Your Own Games with Python (Al Sweigert)
Learn Python the Hard Way (Zed A. Shaw (as html files)
The documentation from Python.org for 3.1.4
Introduction to Computer Science Using Python and Pygame (Paul Vincent Craven)
How to Think Like a Computer Scientist.

I'll also add a current screen-shot!

pygobject and gtkk

#33 Post by growler »

Quite excited by this although it seems massive?
Is it possiible to write Gtk applications on this python 3? Or is it Tk windows only.
I have an appliication I would like to bundle with pupppy and this would seem a perfect solution.
Is there a python 3 glib pygobject .pet around?
I thought updating glib 2.10 to a later version would have nasty consequences for all other gtk applications? i..e. 95% of the systen.

Hi Growler,

Yes, it is a big iso - partly because I made it from the racy sfs with the devx loaded. Perhaps I ought to have trimmed things more (eg there are quite a lot of "examples" that come with Pygame.)

I'm afraid I don't know anything really about gtk or pygobject. Tkinter is there of course :D .

While I am waiting for Saluki13 to be ready, I've put together a better version of the original Racy-based idea.
I've updated the first post.
It's hosted on Ubuntu One this time:

Here's my blog post with a few details.

Python and Pygame Pets available for Saluki14

#36 Post by antiloquax »

I've made some pets for Saluki14.
This one is Pygame for Python 2.7.2 (you'll need python-tk, tk, tcl and all the SDL bits).

Thisis Python 3.1.4 with Pygame included. Dependencies as above.
:D

When you load the devx, it breaks the shell-script that launches Python2.7.2.
This pet fixes it and the desktop icon should work again.
I'll fix this in the next version.

If you are using RacyPy2, you may wonder why Java isn't working with seamonkey..

I put the wrong link in the plugins folder.

Make a simlink to /usr/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

I'll fix this bug in the next version.

Hi antiloquax !
Thanks for this puplet !

Seeking to run an application requiring wxPython, please would you indicate a wx-gtk archive which runs on this puplet? Or how to install it?

By the way, the application is a project management Gantt scheduler, download here (less than 400KB sized !) which looks more efficient than Gnome-Planner (...imho, having tested both...).
http://www.pureviolet.net/ganttpv/

(Getting a working Python+wxPython environment is my major difficulty to achieve this application running).
It worked on puppies4.X using the forum member Big Bass pets documented here (python +deps + wxgtk)
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=31558

Thanks for any advice
Cheers, Charlie

training course

#47 Post by Volhout »

Hi antiloquax,

You said you created RacyPy for a training coarse. Is this training based on commandline (as in the screenshot's you gave) or also set up to use an IDE ? Are you using Geany ? Or something else.

The training coarse material, is that classified (as if " I need to make money from it"), or can you place a link ? I am new to python, but have some background in other languages (assembly, (free)basic, BACON).

@charlie. I don't know anything about wx-gtk or wx-Python. I'll see if I can get it working.

@volhut. My blog posts on python are at
http://teampython.wordpress.com/
And:
http://raspberrypy.tumblr.com/
Also there are some great learning materials in the archive mentioned here:
http://raspberrypy.tumblr.com/post/1905 ... -tutorials

I use Vim and Geany as IDEs. But most of my screenshots are from idle, because they look nicer.

New .pet added for Joe's Own Editor (as used by Eben Upton in his Webinar).
(Link also added to first post).
@Charlie. I have tried to get wxPython working (partly because I fancy having a go with DrPython - an ide that uses wxWidgets & wxPython).
So far, I haven't managed. I'll keep you posted.
