#8 cPickle in Python3 is pickle

[Nuno Barbosa]

Hi,

According to http://docs.pythonsprints.com/python3_porting/py-porting.html, cPickle library is now named only pickle. This creates issues when running the 3-* version of dispy since it's unable to load the library.

Currently, I'm unable to load dispy because of this.

This also occurs with cStringIO:

The StringIO and cStringIO modules are gone. Instead, import the io module and use io.StringIO or io.BytesIO for text and data respectively.

Files from dispy3-3.15 packages http://sourceforge.net/projects/dispy/files/dispy3-3.15.tar.gz/download, http://sourceforge.net/projects/dispy/files/dispy3-3.15.zip/download should work with Python 3 - e.g., 'pickle' module is used in them instead of 'cPickle'. Please check / download dispy3-* files.

I've installed it with pip. The version that it installed was the one for python 2. I had to manual install but now it works.

Still, possibly deploying a version of dispy on the pip repository for python 3 would be cool.
