[News] AmigaOS 4.0 to include Python? | ANN.lu |
Posted on 24-Nov-2002 20:36 GMT by Bill Hoggett | 94 comments View flat View list |
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.

Commodore did have access to the source code and they did make a few
changes. However, these changes only affected the assembler tool used
to translate the source code into executable form. As far as I can
tell, no bugs were ever fixed, nor were enhancements considered. |
