djpy.zip contains the files neccessary to compile Python 1.4 with DJGPP.

-------------------------------------
-------------Contents----------------
-------------------------------------

This archive contains the following files:
readme.dj
makefile
python/makefile
parser/makefile
objects/makefile
modules/makefile
include/config.h
include/osdefs.h
modules/signalmodule.c
modules/config.c

--------------------------------------
-------------Installation-------------
--------------------------------------

1. Unpack python1.4.tar.gz
2. Unzip djpy.zip, replacing the existing osdefs.h and
  signalmodule.c (the changes in both files are marked
  with #ifdef __DJGPP__).
3. Run make in the main python directory (python-1.4, not
  python-1.4/python).  The interpreter is python-1.4/python.exe.

Example:
C:\>djtarx c:\download\python1.4.tar.gz
C:\>pkunzip -d c:\download\djpy.zip
C:\>cd python-1.4
[next line optional, see below]
C:\Python-1.4>set pythonpath=c:/python-1.4/lib
C:\Python-1.4>make
C:\Python-1.4>python

---------------------------------------
-------Environment variables-----------
---------------------------------------
The environment variable PYTHONPATH must be set to the
python-1.4/lib subdirectory.  There are three ways
to do this:
1. Add the command SET PYTHONPATH=... to your AUTOEXEC.BAT
2. Add the following lines to your DJGPP.ENV:
[python]
PYTHONPATH=...
3. If PYTHONPATH is set when you build python, its contents
  will be embedded in the .exe as the default value. (i.e.
  do SET PYTHONPATH=... before running make)

----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
This package was tested on a Pentium running Win95
with DJGPP v2.01.  If you have any problems, let me know.
