Now I have problems importing modules.
I suppose the way around is to rename:
macpath.py --to--> path.py
maccache.py --to--> dircache.py
...etc...
Is this the 'recommended' way, or should I try to
change some of the files to 'conditional' imports ?
I am waiting for a new C compiler ( Borland, instead on MS ) to
be delivered. I am going to be doing some development work on
a PC platform for a change, so I will try to give you a PC port
of python sometime in the near future.
( Yes, I'm back from vacation, so you will be getting some more
comments on tuples, exceptions, etc. as soon as I have digested
the new documentation and caught up with Tim & your messages. )
BTW:
(almost) everything that Tim said in his last series of messages
goes for me also. I always feel the need to issue some disclaimers
before writing requests/suggestions/etc. Some are obviously meant
to make python easier to learn/use ... others are in the aesthetic
or blue-sky realm ( where opinions often differ ) and an appropriate
response may be: "Steve, I'll be very interested to see how YOU
resolve that question when you implement it in STEVE-TRAN/STEVE-BOL/or
whatever!" :-)
Please take all the comments as a compliment on the design of python:
I have found it both practically useful and theoretically interesting.
