How to modify the source of a python file inside a python egg file?

How to modify the source of a python file inside a python egg file?
I can see the file by unzipping it, but how can I package it back as a
python egg file after my modification.

Thank you.

So far I never tried this - but how about zipping it? Besides, you can
install eggs unzipped directly, try easy_install --help for options.

The correct way is to download the source, make your changes and rebuild the
egg.

Unzipping, changing and zipping it back also works.

Hi all, I need to limit as much as possible the lenght of a source line, stripping white spaces (except indentation). For example: .. . max_move and AC_RowStack.acceptsCards ( self, from_stack, cards ) must be reduced to: .. . max_move and AC_RowStack.acceptsCards(self,from_stack,cards) My solution has been (wrogly): ''.join(source_line.split())

Python's InteractiveInterpreter uses the built-in compile function. According to the ref. manual, it doesn't seem to concern about the encoding of the source string. When I hand in an unicode object, it is encoded in utf-8 automatically. It can be a problem when I'm building an interactive environment using "compile", with a different encoding from utf-8. IDLE itself has the same problem. ( '<a string with non-ascii-encoding>' is...

Is there a way in python to add the items of a dictionary to the local function scope? i.e. var_foo = dict. I don't know how many items are in this dictionary, or what they are until runtime. exec statements are difficult for debuggers to deal with, so as a workaround I built my code into a function and saved it in a .py file. The I load the .py file as a module and call the function instead. This works great, and it has the added...

I am creating functions, the return result of which I am using to make decisions in combined expressions. In some expressions, I would like to inverse the return result of function.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
