| Guido van Rossum | 04fe492 | 1991-12-24 13:49:29 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 1 | This directory contains various demonstrations of what you can do with |
| 2 | Python. The demos are grouped sub(sub*)directories according to |
| 3 | required optional built-in modules. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | scripts Some useful Python scripts that I put in my bin |
| 6 | directory. No optional built-in modules meeded. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | sockets Examples for the new built-in module 'socket'. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | sgi Demos that only run on Silicon Graphics machines. |
| Guido van Rossum | 9183aaa | 1992-04-13 18:41:41 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 11 | These require at least one of the optional built-in |
| 12 | modules that only make sense for the SGI, such as |
| 13 | the modules 'gl' and 'al'. Split in subdirectories |
| 14 | per subject. |
| Guido van Rossum | 04fe492 | 1991-12-24 13:49:29 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 15 | |
| 16 | stdwin Demos that use the STDWIN library. Require the 'stdwin' |
| 17 | built-in module. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | WARNING: many scripts are executable and have a first line saying |
| 20 | |
| 21 | #! /usr/local/python |
| 22 | |
| 23 | This is unlikely to give good results unless you've really installed |
| 24 | the latest version python there. Edit the first line before |
| 25 | installing such scripts; to try them out, you can just say "python |
| 26 | foo.py" or enter python interactively and say "import foo". |
