Re: R: [SE|PY-macdev] hello, sepy2, osX port

[Arthur D. <de...@gm...>]

Hi Alessandro.

Listen, I am working on a python-wx application for the mac, and I had
a bad experience with py2app (mac's version of py2exec) that I wanted
to share with you.

I am running tiger (osx 10.4), and the bad news is that if I make an
application on tiger, it will only run on tiger, no earlier versions
of the os.
What I wanted you to know is this, if your mac comes with panther, and
you upgrade to tiger, you will only be able to package apps for tiger.
On the other hand, if you package it with panther, it will run on
panther and tiger, covering most of the user base.

I think, I'm not sure though, that when you upgrade to tiger, there's
an option to keep panther on the hard disk, and you can boot to it. If
that's possible that will solve all these issues.

So, if your mac comes with panther and you decide not to upgrade, if
we need a custom build for tiger, I will be happy to provide it.

That's it,=20

cheers
Arthur

p.s.: I understand this is not py2app's fault, they are doing a
terrific job, but still it is so inconvenient...
