Install using binary installer Download installer from http://ipython.scipy.org/dist/pyreadline-1.3.win32.exe make sure no other readline is installed run installer The configuration file pyreadlineconfig.ini can be copied from Python24/lib/site-packages/pyreadline/configuration to your HOME directory (usually c:/documents and settings/YOURNAME). When using ipython pyreadline is automatically activated. If you want to use pyreadline from the interactive prompt of the python interpreter then you have to include the code in Python24/lib/site-packages/pyreadline/configuration/startup.py in your pythonstartup file or set the PYTHONSTARTUP environment variable to point to that file. Manual can be found in Python24/share/doc/pyreadline

I didn’t want to make a new build tool. Honestly. The main reason that I created Paver is...

IPython on resizeable Win32 Console If you are on win32, you might want to use Console, an open source replacement for that inflexible old win32 terminal. Here's how. Install IPython using the .exe installer. Download stable version of Console (1.5 at this time). Create a shortcut to console.exe, right-click -> properties. Set target to e.g. C:\opt\Console\console.exe -c "/k python c:\python25\scripts\ipython.py -p sh" you can also create a tab dedicated to Ipython (and have other dedicated to other shells or command-line app). go to edit->settings->tabs : click on the add button and fill the following fields : * title : ipython ico : C:\Python24\py.ico shell : cmd.exe /k "ipython" start-up dir : whatever is good for you. note that python.exe need to be in the path Using IPython with Version 2 of Console use the -r option for creating the shortcut, e.g. C:\opt\Console2\console.exe -r "/k python c:\python25\scripts\ipython.py -p sh" Some advantages of Console2 over normal console (for IPython use) Distinctive taskbar icon Can reside in system tray There are many other benefits, so it's well worth setting up Example config for Console-2.00b120-Beta (you need to edit the xml file): http://vvtools.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/config/console.xml If you have problems with ctrl+C killing Console2 immediately, launch ipython from a normal Console2 session manually.

PyInstaller is a program that converts (packages) Python programs into stand-alone executables, under Windows, Linux and Irix. Its main advantages over similar tools are that PyInstaller works with any version of Python since 1.5, it builds smaller executables thanks to transparent compression, it is multi-platform (so you can build one-file binaries also under Linux), and use the OS support to load the dynamic libraries, thus ensuring full compatibility. PyInstaller is an effort to rescue, maintain and further develop Gordon McMillan's Python Installer (now PyInstaller). Their official website is not longer available and the original package is not longer maintained. Believing that it is still far superior to py2exe, we have setup this site to continue its further development. Feel free to join us in the effort! Please consult our Roadmap to check our plans. Also usage reports are welcomed: let us know if PyInstaller works for you and how, or what problems you found in using it.

You can use Microsoft Script Control. If you have the win32 extensions of python, you can use python in place of vb in this control -open the VBA script editor - In menus/Tools/References add Microsoft Script Control -Make a new module and declare a new MsScriptControl.ScriptControl Global sc as new MsScriptControl.ScriptControl -Initialize the language attibute with python - Note that you and users of your document must have python and its win32 extensions installed. Activestate python distribustion include it. You can put sc.language="python" in the routine Workbook_Open() Now you can import python modules using ExecuteStatement method of the control in vba and have results from python functions with eval method. One interesting thing is that you can pass an object to the control with AddObject method and have python manipulate it. And so on..

Global sc As New MSScriptControl.ScriptControl Public Function os_getcwd() sc.Language = "python" sc.ExecuteStatement ("import os") os_getcwd = sc.Eval("os.getcwd()") End Function With this you can set your Excel formula to =os_getcwd() For me it returns "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents", which I needed to know at the time so I didn't have to screw around with the ever annoying pythonpath. You can put the first two lines of the function in the Workbook_Open hook, but I don't know where that is. I hope to use more Python in Excel soon. Hmm, actually, I suppose you can put those first two lines of the function after the Global declaration as well. I know just about zero VBScript and didn't get a chance to do anything else beyond proof of concept yet. I figured I would write something dynamic which allowed more transparent access to Python, maybe allowing formula like =py("os.getcwd()"), etc.

We are about to push out a major new version and the documentation is _much_ better. Also, there are many new features that will hopefully help you. Here is a simple example (using the latest svn of ipython1): In [1]: from ipython1.kernel import client In [2]: mec = client.MultiEngineClient(('127.0.0.1',10105)) In [3]: tc = client.TaskClient(('127.0.0.1',10113)) In [4]: def fold_package(x): ...: return 2.0*x ...: In [5]: mec.push_function(dict(fold_package=fold_package)) Out[5]: [None, None, None, None] In [6]: tasks = [client.Task("y=fold_package(x)",push={'x':x},pull=('y',)) for x in range(128)] In [7]: task_ids = [tc.run(t) for t in tasks] In [8]: tc.barrier(task_ids) In [9]: task_results = [tc.get_task_result(tid) for tid in task_ids] In [10]: results = [tr.ns.y for tr in task_results] In [11]: print results [0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, 10.0, 12.0, 14.0, 16.0, 18.0, 20.0, 22.0, 24.0, 26.0, 28.0, 30.0, 32.0, 34.0, 36.0, 38.0, 40.0, 42.0, 44.0, 46.0, 48.0, 50.0, 52.0, 54.0, 56.0, 58.0, 60.0, 62.0, 64.0, 66.0, 68.0, 70.0, 72.0, 74.0, 76.0, 78.0, 80.0, 82.0, 84.0, 86.0, 88.0, 90.0, 92.0, 94.0, 96.0, 98.0, 100.0, 102.0, 104.0, 106.0, 108.0, 110.0, 112.0, 114.0, 116.0, 118.0, 120.0, 122.0, 124.0, 126.0, 128.0, 130.0, 132.0, 134.0, 136.0, 138.0, 140.0, 142.0, 144.0, 146.0, 148.0, 150.0, 152.0, 154.0, 156.0, 158.0, 160.0, 162.0, 164.0, 166.0, 168.0, 170.0, 172.0, 174.0, 176.0, 178.0, 180.0, 182.0, 184.0, 186.0, 188.0, 190.0, 192.0, 194.0, 196.0, 198.0, 200.0, 202.0, 204.0, 206.0, 208.0, 210.0, 212.0, 214.0, 216.0, 218.0, 220.0, 222.0, 224.0, 226.0, 228.0, 230.0, 232.0, 234.0, 236.0, 238.0, 240.0, 242.0, 244.0, 246.0, 248.0, 250.0, 252.0, 254.0] Or if you don't need load balancing: # This sends the fold_package function for you! results = mec.map(fold_package, range(128)) Let us know if you run into other problems. Cheers, Brian

Speech Recognition may be possible with COM. I found an example of how its done in Python.

Looks like foom is busy. Anyway, here is the verbatim translation of the script foom linked. I can't test it myself as no mike is installed on my machine. If you hear "Starting Succeeded", then, try to say one/two/three. NEED CoHelper.ahk.
