zlib

[=?iso-8859-15?Q?David_D=FCrrenmatt?=]

Hi,

I am looking for a zlib implementation (or any other which can handle zip
archives) for Python 1.5.2. I only found one for Python >= 2.2 :-(



Thanks
Dave

Assuming you have access to a C compiler, you might be able to fairly easily
backport the 2.2 version of zlibmodule.c back to 1.5.2.

zlib is part of the 1.5.2 distro, but zipfile.py was new in 1.6 it seems.
