by Christian Tismer Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

Dear friends, there have been so many changes, additions, contributions and discussion of Stackless in the last few days, that I did an update of the website and created new binaries as well. There also were some kind people who sent some money via PayPal. I would like to thank these, and encourage others to follow their example. Everybody is listed in the sponsors page. There is a good chance for Stackless 3.0 for Python 2.3.3 to appear in the first days of February. Thanks to all contributors who helped in any way! cheers - chris http://www.stackless.com/ -- Christian Tismer :^) <mailto:tismer@stackless.com> Mission Impossible 5oftware : Have a break!

Color count in PIL
by wrbt＠email.com Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

I've been walking up, down, and around instances in the object model of PIL trying to figure out how to easily calculate how many unique colors are used in an image, specifically a bitmap (mode "P"). Am I missing something? Thanks python friends!

RE: Pythonwin - breaking out of infinite loop

> How do I stop a Python program running in PythinWin? I would > expect to be able to use CTR-C or CTRL-break etc. If you right-click on the PythonWin icon in the tray, one of the items is "Break into running code". This will sometimes do it for you, and is probably your best chance. (It does break into "while True: pass", for example). =Tony Meyer
