New in WinPython 3.3.0.0 Beta 2 (Feb 8, 2013)

  • Common bugfix: launchers were accidently generated with the regular NSIS build. As a consequence, when the PATH environment variable was too long, it was truncated when modified by the launchers ("Command prompt.exe", "Python interpreter.exe", etc.). Building WinPython requires the "large strings" build of NSIS.

New in WinPython 3.3.0.0 Beta 1 (Jan 24, 2013)

  • A lot of bugs have been fixed in Spyder, guidata and guiqwt.

New in WinPython 3.3.0.0 Alpha (Jan 10, 2013)

  • Based on Python 3 which required to migrate the following libraries:
  • formlayout
  • guidata
  • guiqwt
  • Spyder v2.1

New in WinPython 2.7.3.2 (Dec 18, 2012)

  • New versions of PyQt (now supporting Windows 8), matplotlib, Cython, guidata, guiqwt, etc.

New in WinPython 2.7.3.1 (Oct 25, 2012)

  • New versions of SciPy, h5py, etc.
  • MinGW32 (32-bit version): added missing libexec files
  • Renamed launchers to avoid confusion with original executables inside the WinPython environment. For example, inside the WinPython command prompt (or from a command prompt executed in WinPython's Spyder) the old 'python.exe' name for the Python interpreter launcher lead in previous release to execute the launcher instead of the real Python interpreter when the current working directory was WinPython root folder
  • Prepend to PATH (instead of append to it) Python root folder (and 'Scripts' folder), 'tools' folder and others. Otherwise, an installed Python distribution would take over WinPython tools
  • Couple of various bugfixes

New in WinPython 2.7.3.0 Final (Oct 25, 2012)

  • Installer/Launchers: the requested execution level is normal user's level, with no administrative privileges -- this should avoid UAC warning dialog from showing up each time a launcher is executed
  • Couple of various bugfixes

New in WinPython 2.7.3.0 RC 1 (Oct 25, 2012)

  • Added pandas, scikit-learn, scikits-image and scikits.timeseries (hey, scikits developers! could you please agree regarding your respective library names: scikit or scikits, '-' or '.' separator...?)
  • Gained some space to stay below the 200-MB upload limit on GoogleCode: removed WinMerge (a portable version is already available out there), removed unnecessary files in MinGW32 (doc) and TortoiseHg (mainly translations)
  • (Fixes Issue 8 ) PyQt package installation: added missing __init__.py files in `uic` subpackage + added missing `pyuic.bat` script
  • WPPM: installation logs are now human readable (no longer using pickle)
  • Couple of various bugfixes

New in WinPython 2.7.3.0 beta 5 (Oct 25, 2012)

  • Changed name of WPPM GUI frontend: introducing the "WinPython Control Panel"
  • WinPython Control Panel: added "Report issue..." entry in "?" menu to report an issue automatically to WinPython GoogleCode website
  • Added package index wiki generation (see the Package Index wiki page)
  • Added packages/tools database for descriptions/links: these infos are shown in WinPython Control Panel (see screenshot below) as well as in the generated "Package Index" wiki page

New in WinPython 2.7.3.0 beta 4 (Oct 25, 2012)

  • make.py/launchers (see Issue 1): the 'settings' directory was no longer created automatically
  • Spyder launchers: replace drive letters in settings to handle situations where the WinPython base directory was moved or when the USB key has been assigned to a different drive letter
  • WPPM: bugfixes

New in WinPython 2.7.3.0 beta 3 (Oct 25, 2012)

  • Fixed issue with %USERPROFILE% redirection (Desktop folder was also redirected)
  • Added (launcher for) IPython
  • WPPM: reorganized window layout + added an "Advanced" menu to register distribution (file extensions, icons, etc. -- the exact same way as the official Python installer would do)

New in WinPython 2.7.3.0 beta 2 (Oct 25, 2012)

  • Added launchers for QtAssistant, QtDesigner and QtLinguist
  • Now redirecting %USERPROFILE% and %APPDATA% inside WinPython's "settings" folder
