PythonD 2.4.2 for older Windows / DOS / DJGPP

[caddit]

Hello.

There has been some confusion as to the current version of the python
programming language available for DOS.

This is partially due to incorrect information kept on python.org, that says
"python2.2.1 available for DOS". The actual version is currently 2.4.2.

I am also happy to announce that a second release of PythonD. Additionally,
there are many fine module libraries hat have been made available including
Python-opengl and curses.

The URL for PythonD has moved.
It is now http://www.caddit.net/pythond

not that this is NOT the same as http://www.caddit.net/pythond.php, which it
was formerly. Please update your bookmarks. It would also be nice if
someone else could raise a ticket to have python.org website updated.

Please note: it would have been helpful if you'd given the URL of the
offending page! There is a "report website bug" link on each page of the
python.org web site, though at present you have to email someone to get
posting privileges (this is an anti-spam measure).

Thanks for this Steve.

I notice the ticket is already closed. When should I see the changes appear?

Dashed if I know - there must be a bug in the build system, normally
changes appear within an hour of being made. Real soon now?

I'm copying Andrew Kuchling, who made the changes, on this. He may be
able to shed more light on the matter. Probably it will just happen.
