So I got the freeze program working in d522a88d. I wish I had a dollar for every time I've seen Python crash with "Unable to get the locale encoding". I...

See cabb0a7e. It's now officially a working 1.1mb pycomp.com binary which turns .py files into .pyc files. I found an objdump tool for pyc files that let me confirm that...

@Keithcat1 The issues you encountered should be addressed by recent commits. I've made numerous other fixes and improvements too! For example, we now have really excellent completion. Here's a screencast...

@ahgamut I want to credit you somehow when we move forward with publicizing this contribution. One suggestion I have is the following language. Does it meet your approval? ``` Python...

I'm glad you enjoyed the readline interface. Definite no on stackless. We have better ways of simulating threads. Can't Flask do its thing using fork multiprocessing, just like gunicorn used...

There's nothing stopping us from checking-in the code for commonly used native extensions, such as greenlet, and shipping it as part of python.com.
