 Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2008 1:01 pm Post subject: pyAT43, linux/mac/windows calculator (29/07 pyAT43-v2-alpha) |
 |
|
pyAT43 is a calculator/company generator for AT43.
It is not as much complete than the well known Easy-at43 of Nazgul, but it works on Linux, mac (and secondary windows).
The software permit to create rules conform company and return a simple pdf file.
All versions are downloadable from here:
http://homepage.mac.com/michaton/pyre/
-------------------------------------------------------------
On Linux, you must install
-python 2.4 (or newer) (already installed on all major distributions)
Moreover, software needs:
- python-wxgtk (to instal wxpython)
- python-reportlab
- python-imaging
All this should be downloadable in your favorites distribution's packages.
Download pyAT43-vX.Y.Z.zip
Unzip it where you want and clic on startup.py.
You can also use deb or rpm file.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
On macosx, python and wxpython are already installed. You just have to add reportlab, which is a simple folder to move on the right place in your system, and start pyAT43.
A script do this for you.
Download pyAT43-vX.Y.Z-osx and clic on StartuppyAT43.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For windows, you can use this package. The displayed soft is somewhat ugly, and it looks better with sources, but this package permit to use the soft without any installations and without specific permissions on the computer (you can use it from an USB key on your office's PC for exemple).
Download pyAT43-vX.Y.Z-win.zip

This is the first multilingual version, so, the translation is probably not perfect.
If you find some strange messages or error in the interface, juste reply with the modifications to apply :p |

In fact it is not really designed for mac but for Linux.
I use it for my personnal use for more than one month now but i only diffuse it for less than 2 weeks on french version.
English version is only beta and be finished this morning, so....
The choosed technologie make the software usable on linux (sure it was designed for :p), windows (i provide a all-in-one binarie for this platform cause python/gtk is really painfull to install on win) and on mac.
But for mac, it's not confirmed because nobody on french forum have tried to use it for now on a mac, and i don't have one to test. Normally it should works. If not, juste tell me the problem. |

I am also failing to install it on my Mac. Actually, I can't even find that software you're talking about and which needs to be installed first  Well, too early to cheer up

People actually use Python? Wow.
Thanks though for providing an alternative for those who use alternative OSes.
What would be great is if there were a website that had this all through a web interface. Then anyone, with any OS could use it as long as they had a browser.
Greatly appreciate your efforts and will definitely download and check it out.

Python comes as standard with Mac OS X:
| Code: |
Shadowland:~ gurth$ python -V
Python 2.5.1
Shadowland:~ gurth$ |
This is under OS X 10.5.3 (the current version), but even 10.3 had Python 2.something as well; I don't know about 10.2 or before, but I doubt many people still use that anyway. You would have to get GTK and the Python modules, though, as they don't come pre-installed AFAIK. Now if only I could be bothered to mess with Fink after my very disappointing experiences with it some years ago 
Still, good work, my compliments on actually getting something like this finished

How is that remarkable? IMHO it's one of the easier languages to get into, yet it's powerful enough to write real and complex programs in — not to mention it's very portable.

That might be doable using DiCiCat's code, since it's pretty easy to write CGI scripts in Python — depending on how the program is actually put together, it could be fairly easy to turn it into one of those.

argggg!!!
you affraid me!
i'm not a devellopers but a system administrator and in fact, this soft is my first code for 10 years :/
If someone have the capacity to icluding it on automatised installation or on website etc.. no pb for me, but it's totally outside my skills in the domain .
The code itself is totally independant of the platform, the only difficulty is to install pyhton/gtk and the 3 needed modules. On linux, it's really easy, on windows it's difficult but i have created a binarie (i have again access to windows).
It seems to be complicated to install for mac users. I really think it was simplier and that a majority of mac user know how tu use fink or macports.
As it seem not to be the case, i will TRY to install a virtual macosx on my computer and create an all-in-on application for mac... I don't know if it will be possible with my hardware.
I give me one week for test this.
But normally with fink or macport it should work. |

FWIW, I'm not a developer either, just a self-taught amateur who happens to like Python

If/when I get the time, I might look into it. Beware that I've never made a real CGI program, just one or two "This is a test"-type things

Most probably won't — most Mac users rarely ever mess with anything that isn't a real OS X program, and the vast majority won't ever have even started up Terminal.app. Speaking for myself, I used to be a Linux user before I bought an iMac, so I know what I'm supposed to do with it The reason I gave up on Fink was because I could get very few programs to work properly, and soon found Mac equivalents for just about everything I needed.

That's easier said than done, AFAIK. However, if someone were to put some effort in, it should be possible to create a Mac front-end for your code. The current version of Xcode (Apple's own developer's suite, which comes free with any Mac) supports Python applications that can access all native OS X functions (GUI and others) using PyObjC, so all it would probably take is to create a GUI and put a Python script behind it that interfaces with your code.
| DiCiCat wrote: |

It should, but most Mac users will probably never have even heard of that, and even fewer will likely go to the trouble of installing them …

I just fired up fink and found there were no binaries of GTK kicking around. I don't have time to let fink compile it right now but I'll try to remember and do it over the weekend.
I guess it's pretty well tested under linux, but if you want me to try it out for feedback just let me know - I've got lots of boxes kicking around. |

No problem
Under linux it's effectively ok, i use it for my own. But the english translation is probably not perfect and all reports will be apreciate (small bugs or translation problems)
If you try it on mac os and that is ok, you can perhaps make a "compiled" version for macos.
I will try to do it myself if i can start an osx system on my PC, but it's not an easy operation. |

MacPorts has GTK.
Edit: However, I've been trying to install it, and using MacPorts to get package py-gtk2 results in errors:

I have no idea why it wants to install Python 2.4.5 when I already have 2.5.1 on my system, though.
Anyway, this of course results in:
| Code: |

Anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?

Yes, I know that. IIRC, the installer makes a symlink called python to the latest version, but you can reach any of the others by using the command pythonX.Y where X.Y is the version number.
But unfortunately, that doesn't work either:
| Code: |
Shadowland:pyAT43 gurth$ python2.4 pyAT43.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyAT43.py", line 4, in ?

but, this line

seems to tell that pygtk isn't correctly installed. |
Clearly — what I pasted into my message is the complete output of the installer when I tried to install py-gtk2, and it didn't even get to the actual py-gtk2. py-numpy is apparently required but fails to install, causing the installer to abort entirely. I think I'll try one of the other GTK packages available via MacPorts and see what happens …
Well, it turns out there is a package called py25-gtk as well — I'm trying to install that now and will report success or failure later What I can tell already is that this is currently trying to install Python 2.5.2 … ! What is the problem with the people who put these packages together anyway?!
Edit: Well, that failed as well. Now with:
| Code: |

I'm getting tired of this — it's one of the reasons I bought a Mac instead of upgrading my Linux PC a few years ago, after all … Maybe I'll try again later, but not just yet. Instead, I'll go and find out how to get rid of those Python versions I never asked for
