The Pillow release has begun, you can follow along the wheel build+PyPI publish CI here, it'll be done in a couple of hours or so:

Whee! Now we can import files from the filesystem, as well as reading and writing files. Still haven't wrapped my head around how folders work, still can't enumerate files ..

as usual, work pushed to my micropython fork on github (which is called circuitpython, because you can't have two different forks of the "same" original project, argh).

#micropython #python #retrocomputing #retro68 #macintosh #m68k

oh my yay, it now works well enough to save and edit a file, then import and run that file.

you could basically use an old m68k mac as a python3 (well, micropython) development system now.

don't mind the debug messages, they're as scared of you as you are of them.

#micropython #python #retrocomputing #retro68 #macintosh #m68k

Are there any folks with vintage Mac programming experience who'd like to collaborate on figuring out what's next with Micropython on Mac?

I think that might be: What's the minimal set of APIs to do a fun graphical demo.

Pointers to "how to"-ish documentation in Pascal and C would be great as well, I have failed at finding this kind of stuff. (I do have Inside Macintosh but it is not a great tutorial)

#micropython
#python
#retrocomputing
#retro68
#macintosh
#m68k

asyncio is working on mac micropython!

also (not shown here) the "sys.stdin" object is pollable, and you can double-click a python file to run it as the main code file.

#micropython
#python
#retrocomputing
#retro68
#macintosh
#m68k

Now you can witness one of the first quickdraw calls from MicroPython on mac... 🎉 ⬛

#micropython #python #retrocomputing #retro68 #macintosh #m68k

Doing a little iterative code development in micropython on an emulated m68k mac... I might not be so happy with the loading time if a real floppy was involved, but in an emulator it's heckin' snappy.

Clearly I need to tackle the issue that you can't REALLY draw to the same window as the terminal....

Netencode: I’m currently building out my project of making a “better” structured language for use in UNIX-pipelines and shell scripting and the like.

It’s human-readable, but supports trivial generation with printf & wc, tagged values (sum types, Result<T>) and embedding arbitrary binaries without escaping due to being length-prefixed.

I think it’s pretty cool!
