| Subject: | pypaq: Python for Linux handhelds | |

I've released Familiar v0.7.2. Familiar is a Linux distribution for the Compaq/HP iPAQ series of handhelds. Familiar by itself comes with no GUI. On top of it have been Opie, derived from Qtopia (most often seen on the Sharp Zaurus), and GPE, a set of programs based on the gtk toolkit running over X11R6. With the v0.7.2 release, I've put together a special 'pypaq' distribution. It has the base features of GPE (stroke recognition, virtual keyboard, sysadmin GUI controls), Python, and pygtk. With this set of files, a programmer can write a GUI program in Python on their handheld.
