The PythonCd includes the Python distribution in several forms:
Installable Python packages
In the top level directory of the CD is a directory python/, containing several packages of Python:
- Python for Linux - most Linux distributions include Python, so we don't provide it for them
- Python for Mac OS X
- Python for Windows, win32all extension
- Python for DOS - no maintainer yet, so we only provide an URL
- Python source code, if you want to compile it yourself
Ready-to-Use Python
On the bootable Linux system, Python is already installed and ready to run:
- Python 2.3.4 (latest and greatest, use this!)
- Python 2.2.3
- Python 2.1.3
The older versions are provided for satisfying dependencies of other stuff and to be able to try compatibility of your source code.
