-Welcome to the "PC" subdirectory of the Python distribution!
-************************************************************
-
-
-This "PC" subdirectory contains complete project files to make
-several PC ports of Python, as well as all the PC-specific
-Python source files. It should be located in the root of the
-Python distribution, and there should be directories "Modules",
-"Objects", "Python", etc. in the parent directory of this "PC"
-subdirectory.
-
-Be sure to read the documentation in the Python distribution. You
-must set the environment variable PYTHONPATH to point to your Python
-library directory. This is "../Lib", but you must use an absolute path,
-and perhaps copy it somewhere else. Be sure to include the Windows
-specific directory "win" too. If you use a DOS FAT file system and
-either a DOS or Windows 3.1x Python version, you should also put
-../Lib/dos_8x3 on your PYTHONPATH too, since it has DOS 8x3 names
-for the standard Python library names. So your autoexec.bat should have:
- set PYTHONPATH=.;c:\python\lib;c:\python\lib\win
-for Windows NT or
- set PYTHONPATH=.;c:\python\lib;c:\python\lib\win;c:\python\lib\dos_8x3
-for DOS or Windows 3.1x (change the path to the correct path).
-
-There are several add-in modules to build Python programs which use
-the native Windows operating environment. The ports here just make
-"QuickWin" and DOS Python versions which support a character-mode
-(console) environment. Look in www.python.org for Tkinter, PythonWin,
-WPY and wxPython.
-
-To make a Python port, start the Integrated Development Environment
-(IDE) of your compiler, and read in the native "project file"
-(or makefile) provided. This will enable you to change any source
-files or build settings so you can make custom builds.
-
-config.h An important configuration file specific to PC's.
-
-config.c The list of C modules to include in the Python PC
- version. Manually edit this file to add or
- remove Python modules.
-
-testpy.py A Python test program. Run this to test your
- Python port. It should say "all tests OK".
-
-src A subdirectory used only for VC++ version 1.5 Python
- source files. See below. The other compilers do not
- use it. They reference the actual distribution
- directories instead.
-
-
-Microsoft Visual C++ Version 4.0 (32-bit Windows)
-=================================================
-
-(While we have done all our testing with VC version 4.0, we are
-confident that the same procedure will work for versions 4.1 and 4.2.)
-
-The distributed Makefile is vc40.mak. This file is distributed with
-CRLF line separators, otherwise Developer Studio won't like it. It
-will NOT work from this PC directory. To use it, first copy it to the
-Python distribution directory, e.g. with this command:
- copy vc40.mak ..
-To convert the Makefile into a project file, start Developer Studio,
-choose Open Workspace, change the file name pattern to *.mak, find and
-select the file vc40.mak, and click OK. Developer Studio will create
-additional project files vc40.ncb and vc40.mdp when you use the
-project. The project contains six targets, which should be built in
-this order:
-
-python14 The Python core as a DLL, named python14.dll.
-
-python The Python main program, named python.exe. This should
- work as a console program under Windows 95 or NT, as well
- as under Windows 3.1(1) when using win32s. It uses
- python14.dll.
-
-_tkinter The optional _tkinter extension, _tkinter.dll; see below.
-
-ALl end products of the compilation are placed in the subdirectory
-vc40 (which Developer Studio creates); object files are placed in
-vc40/tmp. There are no separate Release and Debug project variants.
-Note that the python and _tkinter projects require that the
-python14.lib file exists in the vc40 subdirectory before they can be
-built.
-
-*** How to build the _tkinter extension ***
-
-This assumes that you have installed the Tcl/Tk binary distribution for
-Windows 95/NT with version numbers 7.5p1/4.1p1, in the default
-installation location (C:\tcl). (Ftp to ftp.sunlabs.com in /pub/tcl,
-file win41p1.exe.) You must also fetch and unpack the zip file
-vclibs41.zip which contains the files tcl75.lib and tk41.lib, and place
-those files in the PC subdirectory. In order to use _tkinter, the
-Tkinter.py module must be on PYTHONPATH. It is found in the
-Lib\tkinter subdirectory.
-
-
-Additional files and subdirectories for 32-bit Windows
-======================================================
-
-python_nt.def Exports definition file for python14.dll.
-
-python_nt.rc Resource compiler input for python14.dll.
-
-dl_nt.c, getpath_nt.c, import_nt.c
- Additional sources used for 32-bit Windows features.
-
-main_nt.c Source for python.exe.
-
-dllbase_nt.txt A (manually maintained) list of base addresses for
- various DLLs, to avoid run-time relocation.
-
-_tkinter.def The export definitions file for _tkinter.dll.
-
-make_nt.in Include file for nmake-based builds (unsupported).
-
-example_nt A subdirectory showing how to build an extension as a
- DLL.
-
-setup_nt A subdirectory containing an experimental installer
- using Python only.
-
-
-Microsoft Visual C++ Version 1.5 (16-bit Windows)
-=================================================
-
-Since VC++1.5 does not handle long file names, it is necessary
-to run the "makesrc.exe" program in this directory to copy
-Python files from the distribution to the directory "src"
-with shortened names. Included file names are shortened too.
-Do this before you attempt to build Python.
-
-The "makesrc.exe" program is a native NT program, and you must
-have NT, Windows 95 or Win32s to run it. Otherwise you will need
-to copy distribution files to src yourself.
-
-The makefiles are named *.mak and are located in directories
-starting with "vc15_". NOTE: When dependencies are scanned
-VC++ will create dependencies for directories which are not
-used because it fails to evaluate "#define" properly. You
-must manaully edit makefiles (*.mak) to remove references to
-"sys/" and other bad directories.
-
-vc15_lib A static Python library. Create this first because is
- is required for vc15_w31.
-
-vc15_w31 A Windows 3.1x Python QuickWin (console-mode)
- Python including sockets. Requires vc15_lib.
-
-
-Watcom C++ Version 10.6
-=======================
-
-The project file for the Watcom compiler is ./python.wpj.
-It will build Watcom versions in the directories wat_*.
-
-wat_dos A 32-bit extended DOS Python (console-mode) using the
- dos4gw DOS extender. Sockets are not included.
-
-wat_os2 A 32-bit OS/2 Python (console-mode).
- Sockets are not included.
