According to Irmen de Jong, the AmigaPython website maintainer, the Python programming language may be included as standard with AmigaOS 4.0.
From the AmigaPython site:
UPDATE november 2002: from very reliable sources I know that AmigaPython might become part of the new Amiga OS 4.0 ! What AREXX was for AmigaDOS 2.x and 3.x, AmigaPython might be for the next generation of Amiga OS (and much more powerful of course)
Further information about Python is available at the Python Home Page.

AmigaOS 4.0 to include Python? : Comment 45 of 94 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Hans-Joerg Frieden on 25-Nov-2002 12:20 GMT | In reply to Comment 40 (Petr Krenzelok): Having general purpose scripting interface was already discussed internally some time ago. This is something that we would like to tackle, but as a long-term (i.e OS 4.1/4.2) solution.
Right now AREXX will still be around, emulated, but keep in mind that emulated programs don't have access to the full range of functionality, since they will not be aware of new libraries and services.
After all, OS 4 is not a blackbox approach. I don't think AREXX can communicate with the Host OS on UAE. |
