How compliant is Python on the Amiga?

[Pat the Cat]

I know very little about Python. I can barely existing programs written with it on Linux and that's about all.

I realize that downloadable Amtinet versions are legacy now, but how compatible were they?

I'm vaguely interested  to see how easy it would be to port old legacy applications with them onto "big" memory Amigas (32Mb plus)

I understand that such applications would not be quick even with 32 bit Amigas, my question is, should I bother trying?

Drat. I meant 3.x. Could have sworn I put that in.

I'm getting old.

Anything that I tried to port would be the same version or earlier (2.3?), that's not really the issue.

[Pat the Cat]

Thanks for that. It's given me a neat frame over my expectations.

I think maybe 2 applications I had in mind fit into it, might seem trivial but it's saved me years in wasted false expectation.

Candidates are Pronterface (looks feasible) and skeinforge (EEK you better have lotsa RAM)

Happily the Legacy versions of Pronterface I was thinking about don't requiire wx Python 4. Unlikw the current version. I wasn't being that ambitious.

Anyway, a port would be more  a case of getting prosole to work. The GUI as laid out wouldn't fit on a classic Amiga display anyway..
