Most important changes since last posting (v1.1.18) - easier install; .rpm should work on more systems - does not rely on mod_python by default... too hard to get right automatically, and users don't get to play with Spyce - downgraded some code to run on Python v2.1.1 and up. (requires nested scoping, so can't go further than that) - removed use of Python threads - new filter module - improved installation documentation, and explained how modules work ... and lots more. Spyce still works under mod_python. To get it to work, you'll need a properly running mod_python, and then just to comment and uncomment a few lines in your httpd.conf. See: http://spyce.sourceforge.net/download.html#modpython ---------- SPYCE - Server Python Pages SPYCE is a webserver plugin that supports simple and efficient Python-based dynamic HTML scripting. Those who like Python and are familiar with JSP, or PHP, or ASP, should have a look at this engine. It allows one to generate dynamic HTML content just as easily, using Python for the dynamic parts. Its modular design makes it very flexible and extensible. It supports FastCGI, CGI and mod_python to plugin into Apache and most other webservers. It can also be used as a command-line utility for HTML pre-processing. v1.1.22 released on 7 July 2002. Get it at: http://spyce.sourceforge.net ---------- Partial change log: v1.1.22 fixed Python v2.1.1-related bugs. improved installation process and documentation rpm more likely to succeed - uses fcgi or drops back to cgi no longer mod_python based by default v1.1.21 (faulty release) stochastic session clean up; no more threading dependency documentation: better installation notes peep-hole optimizer v1.1.20 (faulty release) created explicit (swappable) cache infrastructure BUG ** Spyce also works on Python v2.1 request - request.post(),post1() works in includes documentation: cheetah install, ... v1.1.19 filter module v1.1.18 fcgi support added X-Spyce header added documentation: how to write new modules v1.1.17 feature request - compaction algorithm improved ...
