Homebrew Python27 interpreter and shell

[Sono]

Here used to be a post about Python interpreter, but it was removed due to not being able to be compiled, and violating open-source license.

Man, I love Python. Godspeed.

I use Python in almost all of my projects and would love to see my scripts on 3DS Thank you so much for this!

Looking pretty good, nice work!

Oh snap, excited to play around on this once it's released.

 

[cots]

This is exciting.

This should speed up quite a few aspects of homebrew development. Good job!

Now we can get the Pythonites in on the whole homebrew development thing.

 

[SimplyFedorable]

welp, now I don't have to learn c to develop homebrew

Why not Python35 instead? ;0

Python3 should be working, but it needs additional patches, and since recompiling after an error takes ~20-40minutes, I got bored of it. I'll do it eventually

I was just thinking that having multiple Pythons interpreters would split the community and using the latest one would be better for the future :>

Nah... Since init.py is compiled into the 3dsx, there would be no problem with version differences The best I could do, is to install the Python interpreter as a separate app, and I would write a wrapper that calls the interpreter, this way you don't need to waste 10megs for every Python application

Mind if I ask how you're compiling this that takes ~20-40 minutes? A compile of Python 3.5 on an Intel Atom C2750 based machine takes ~5 minutes for me... I'd imagine on a chip that's not intended for super low power usage, it should be even faster...

Intel Celeron on win8 (not 8.1) takes ~20-40mins... On Linux-x86_64 it takes ~15-25mins to build.

Are you building in parallel or just a single thread at a time?

Are you building in parallel or just a single core at a time?

u wot? How could I build on multiple cores? It's nearly killing the lappy already at almost 100% CPU usage

 

[DKB]

Damn, maybe it's finally time for me to break out that Python book I have and start learning it. lol

If you're using make, just add -j<threadcount> ... General rule of thumb is that you should use ~2x the number of cores for good IO utilization.

YAY! I got networking working

Spoiler: Big image

I'll upload the 3dsx and cia in a few minutes

And source code, I assume?
