Subject: [9fans] new python posted
Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2002 02:46:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a1d8aee0523c49af2194aa7e67f37700@plan9.bell-labs.com> (raw)
the changes i remember:
better utf support
>>> '☺'
'☺'
>>>
an implementation of the dial(2) routines
>>> from plan9 import *
>>> dial('tcp!sources.cs.bell-labs.com!9fs')
(5, '/net/tcp/51', -1)
>>> close(5)
None
>>>
a simulation of sockets above the dial routines
>>> import _socket
>>> s=_socket.socket()
>>> s.connect(('sources.cs.bell-labs.com', 564))
>>> s.close()
>>>
the socket simulation is minimal but good enough to run the
various HTTPServer classes in /sys/lib/python
% cd /tmp; python /sys/lib/python/SimpleHTTPServer.py
...
the environment doesn't pick up extra nul bytes,
supports assignment, and knows about rc-style lists
>>> from plan9 import *
>>> environ['path']
['.', '/bin']
>>> environ['path'] = ['.', '/bin', '/tmp']
importing subclasses (subdirectories of /sys/lib/python)
works now too.
