Python / Creating Python 2.4 Zaurus Image
« on: January 12, 2005, 07:37:54 pm »
I just got my 5600 last week. It is great, but I have a lot to learn re. Linix. I am most interested in Python; I have been using it for about 4 years. I have been reading about your port of 2.4. Sounds fantastic.
I noted that the memory footprint is an issue. Have you looked into the Python feature which allows imports from a ZIP file. This might be a good way to shrink the size. There is probably some time penalty, but I bet it is not too bad.
Right now I am trying to figure out what I need to do to setup Python on my Zaurus. I would like to put it on my SanDisk 512MB SD card. Is there a good how-to guide for setting things up for Linix newbies.
Since I have a lot of python experience, I would be happy to help out anyone who has a Python question.
