EG and current python updates

Post by Mluminoth »

I did use the search feature but didnt find anything to satisfy my specific questions. I know that EventGhost is based around python and as a new blood to programming i did enjoy how simple and Flexible it is. And i love Event Ghost even more, its the most powerful script automaton and macro program ive ever used. But where does its connection with python's developers lie?
how often will the updates py code and its modules receive be re-integrated with EventGhost? And are the modules for the Python 3.3 interchangeable with EG?
And is there a way i can set EventGhost to load its modules and extra scripts from my python installation?
I love this tool and would like to use it to write python programs but id like it to have all the features that the newest python update has?

Perhaps the next time Pako checks in, he'll answer your questions. Historically, the underlying Python version is seldom changed. From the interface, you can get a PyCrust Shell by going to the menu Help...Python Shell. From that, you'll see the Python version being used is Python 2.6.5 Stackless 3.1b3 060516 (release26-maint, Mar 20 2010, 15:26:51).

Personally, I hope they never update to a newer version of Python. Doing so would make all my Python script and Python command actions stop working because the newest version of Python is not backwards-compatible with 2.6.
