| Greetings all!
This may or may not come as a helpful hint to anyone, but I've finally taken the time to find a simple solution to the scripting in python issue, for MUSHclient and WINE.
So with this, I hope to create a small tutorial in order to help others, who'd rather use Python with MUSH under wine, rather then resorting to re-writing your code in LUA.(Sorry Nick!)
WINE V:0.9.46
MUSH V:4.19
First of all, download ActivePython, for your type of system(Win version, 32b or 64b), and install it within your .wine directory, say, drive_c.
http://www.activestate.com/store/download.aspx?prdGUID=b08b04e0-6872-4d9d-a722-7a0c2dea2758
Download :http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcirt
And place it within the windows/system directory of WINE.
Open a terminal and navigate to where the ActivePython MSI is located.
Execute the following:
$ msiexec /i <activepythonfile>.msi
After it is installed, you may close the terminal window.
Open the .wine/drive_c/python## folder, copy the python##.dll file, to the windows/system directory of WINE.
Open a browser, and download the appropriate pywin32 file for your version of Python, from here:
http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=78018
After pywin32 is completely installed, and MUSHclient is installed, then you should be able to select Python as your scripting language, in MUSH.
Granted, there still seems to be a few limitations to MUSH under WINE, such as the infobar will not render text properly, and has a few buggy issues with loading plugins. But aside from that, python scripting should work as it would under Windoze, and all without the /wine argument!
Enjoy! |
Yes, I am a criminal.
My crime is that of curiosity.
My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like.
My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for. | top |
