-Things to do before releasing Pyton 1.4 the final cut:
-
-Win/NT specific things:
-
-... pyc files remain open when imported???
-
-... no control-c or control-break in Windows Console mode???
-    (implement Mark's hacks) (seems to work now?)
-
-Bugs:
-
-... exception in __del__ when __builtins__ has been deleted
-
-Features:
-
-... simple threading support (with lock) for Tk
-
-... Create and distribute the generic Makefile.pre.in for outside extensions.
-
-Documentation:
-
-... Add section on filesystem interface to tutorial
-
-... Update tutorial for changes in the language & library
-
-... New sections for library reference manual (use NEWS file for hints)
-
-... add stuff to ext.tex about threads and embedded Python
-
-... mention that -2147483648 doesn't work
-
-... mention that 0e0 and 01.0 etc. don't work
-
-Maybe not (yet):
-
-... get rid of 'owner' passed around for newframeobject and evalcode
-
-... Get freeze working for NT?  (Sam has one)
-
-... rename init<module> to PyInit_<module>.
-
-... import ni seems to interpret the current directory as a package.
-
-... math.sqrt(1j) should raise TypeError!!!  (To fix in getargs 'd' format.)
-
-... add make target that does machdep install; use in "machdepinstall"
-
-... prototype for PyOS_CheckStack() somewhere
-
-... On some Linuxes, ``python -c "print 12" | wc'' produces no output???
-
-... Add INSTALL_ROOT variable to Makefile.in
-
-... More thread testing (Solaris?), wait for David Arnold
-
-... Get rid of more modules: (stdwin, soundex, SGI specific?)
