[Pyobjc-dev] TableModel2 comitted

[Bill B. <bb...@co...>]

I "ported" Ronald's TableModel into a Project Builder project.   It is 
committed into the repository under Examples/TableModel2 (original 
name, huh?).

The conversion is fairly straightforward -- the key is in the 
implementation of the main function.  Outside of the four or five steps 
necessary to configure the project, everything else should "just work" 
as it would in a normal Cocoa application.

I also discovered that the Python that Apple distributes in incomplete 
-- it lacks a library (static or dynamic) to link against.  
Unfortunately, this means that you have to have some alternative 
distribution of python installed -- Fink's works nicely and I'm sure 
the framework build of Python will work equally as well (actually -- 
the one advantage of the Framework build is the integration with 
Project Builder when compensating for Apple's incomplete distribution 
of Python).

Bummer on that -- appropriate bugs have been reported.

If you miss readline support from Apple's distribution of Python (not 
an oversight on Apple's part, but due to the non-free nature of the 
GPL), I hacked together a setup.py that can build/install the readline 
module into Apple's python distribution:
