Now the directory contains _gnuplot.py gnuplot.bat pyreport file2interactive.py profiler.py regression.py floatdiff.py ps2mpeg.py subst.py All of these, except pyreport, are scripts developed or used in my "Python for Computational Science" book (a new README file in the bin directory briefly explains what the remaining files here are used for). The files may well go to another bin directory (/usr/local/bin, for instance). The only problem I can foresee is that they go to a directory that users do not have in their PATH. Another possibility is to say that these files (except pyreport) are for the mentioned book only, and since this book has a special bin directory I can easily move them there. This is okay with me if SciTools users do not think they lose much. What they lose is basically the following: gnuplot.bat, _gnuplot.py: ability to run Gnuplot on Windows as it is run on Unix file2interactive.py: quick creation of interactive sessions (maybe more a utility for a book writer...) profiler.py: trivial front-end, but makes profiling a one-line command regression.py, floatdiff.py: original tools supporting regression tests with floating-point numbers (i.e., reference results change with hardware) subst.py: cross-platform sed-like substitution command pyreport in this dir allows the original pyreport program to work with scitools.easyviz. Tell me what you think. An update to v0.6 was just committed to the svn repository (incl. the updates mentioned above).
