I stumbled apon a paragraph in python-dev about "reducing the size of
Python" for an embedded device:
"""
In my experience, the biggest gain can be obtained by dropping the
rarely-used
CJK codecs (for Asian languages). That should sum up to almost 800K
(uncompressed), IIRC.
"""
So, my question is: on Windows. where are those CJK codecs? Are they by
any chance included in the 1.867.776 bytes of python24.dll ?
Best wishes,
Harald

If your installation directory is C:\Python25, then look in
C:\Python25\lib \encodings

that's only the glue code. the actual data sets are provided by a bunch
of built-in modules:
>>import sys
sys.builtin_m odule_names
('__builtin__', '__main__', '_ast', '_bisect', '_codecs',
'_codecs_cn', '_codecs_hk', '_codecs_iso202 2', '_codecs_jp',
'_codecs_kr', '_codecs_tw', ...

So, it should be possible to do a custom build of python24.dll /
python25.dll without some of those codecs, resulting in a smaller
python24.dll ?
It will be some time untill my apps must support Chinese and
Japanese...

Hi,
I have been trying to generate codecs for my language in Python using
gencodec.py.
The problem is the codec created does not work.
Here is the process that I followed.
I created a directory inside /tools/scripts and
put in a text file containing the mapping.
Here is a sample from it.
0x63 0x0915 # acsii letter c
0x64 0x0916

Hi all,
I just found a problem in the xreadlines method/module when used with codecs.open: the codec specified in the open does not seem to be taken into account by xreadlines which also returns byte-strings instead of unicode strings.
For example, if a file foo.txt contains some text encoded in latin1:
>>> import codecs
>>> f =...

Hi All--
As far as I can tell, after looking only at the documentation (and not
searching peps etc.), you cannot query the codecs to give you a list of
registered codecs, or a list of possible codecs it could retrieve for
you if you knew enough to ask for them by name.
Why not? It seems to me that if I want to try to read an unknown file...
