pypaq: Python for Linux handhelds

I've released Familiar v0.7.2. Familiar is a Linux distribution for
the Compaq/HP iPAQ series of handhelds. Familiar by itself comes with
no GUI. On top of it have been Opie, derived from Qtopia (most often
seen on the Sharp Zaurus), and GPE, a set of programs based on the gtk
toolkit running over X11R6.

With the v0.7.2 release, I've put together a special 'pypaq'
distribution. It has the base features of GPE (stroke recognition,
virtual keyboard, sysadmin GUI controls), Python, and pygtk. With
this set of files, a programmer can write a GUI program in Python on
their handheld.

Get it at http://familiar.handhelds.org/releases/v0.7.2/
