v1.6.4

2011-01-17

• Change CLI templates towards working with Python 3. (view commit)

Maybe it's better to not hardcode print+parens but use the lparen_if_python3 et al. template variables?

2011-01-12

• Add 4 new default templates. (view commit)

  2 versions of the encoding magic comment.

  2 CLI skeletons:

  • Module: CLI (argparse) for Python 2.7 using the new argparse module.
  • Module: CLI (optparse) for Python 2.6 and lower, using the optparse module.

  The CLI skeletons are roughly based on an old post by Guido van Rossum.
  Although the post is from 2003 the gist of it still holds true today.

  NB: it may be good advise however, not to add any more unjustified extras to the default templates.
  That's what the Jython scripting is there for.

• Make the build system a bit more friendly to outsiders. (view commit)

  Adjust Ant build system to work with a build directory other than the source root.
  Loosen ties to internals paths/dependents like the Aptana based studio3.p2.repo.
  Adjust keystore access for signing to cater a bit better to individual devs doing local builds.

• Add ISO-8601 date to the default templates. (view commit)
