You can get the latest version of PythonCard at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=19015

Remember to backup or just delete your old PythonCardPrototype directory
before installing a new version, so that the old files aren't still in the
package directory. As always, report any problems to the list.

I've updated the installation instructions, state of the framework messages,
etc. for 0.6.5. Please report any problems to the list.

For this release, Andy Todd worked on our distutils setup (thanks Andy!).
Since it has been a while since we tried using distutils I'm going to go
ahead and provide the build details. I built the Windows installer on a
Windows 2000 box using Python 2.2.1 with the command:

setup.py bdist_wininst --no-target-compile --no-target-optimize

That prevents any .pyo and .pyc files from being created and cluttering up
the samples directory. The source zip was built with:

setup.py sdist --formats=zip

Andy will be providing a .tar.gz source file for Linux soon, but Linux users
can just download and use the .zip if they want.

Note that the filenames were automatically created by distutils, which is
why the source zip isn't named proto-0.6.5.zip. The distutils installer will
put the framework and components into Python22\lib\site-packages and create
Python22\PythonCardPrototype to hold the documentation and samples.

I tested the Windows installer on Win98 and Win2K with Python 2.2.1 using
the default C:\Python22 directory as well as C:\Program Files\Python22 and
didn't see any script launching problems, so my fingers are crossed that
this works correctly on WinME. If not, that will get fixed in the next
release.
