|
4 | | -- All core-Python changes, plus a few from after 1.6a2, approximately as the |
5 | | - Python CVS tree was at May 5. |
6 | | -- The threading performance bug has been fixed. |
7 | | -- Tkinter is included again (yeah!), but only lightly tested. Please report |
8 | | - findings to the mailing list. |
9 | | -- macfsn.py is auto-imported on startup (unless disabled with a new option). |
10 | | - This retrofits macfs.StandardGetFile() and friends to use Navigation Services |
11 | | - in stead of the old Standard File dialogs. |
12 | | -- I think all installer problems have been fixed. Please report if not so. |
| 4 | +Unfortunately I have messed my administration up, so I can't give complete |
| 5 | +Mac-specific release notes for the changes in this release. So, I will |
| 6 | +have to leave it at the highlights: |
13 | 7 |
|
| 8 | +- 68K support has been dropped, this release is PPC only. |
| 9 | +- Threads support (through standard Python threads module). |
| 10 | +- Appearance support through App module and added calls in many other modules. |
| 11 | +- Navigation Services support, with macfs StandardFile calls transparently |
| 12 | + replaced by their NavServices counterparts. |
| 13 | +- Offscreen QuickDraw support through Qdoffs module. |
| 14 | +- Drag manager support (Drag module). |
| 15 | +- Much better CGI support, see :Mac:Tools:CGI. |
