`Movable Python 1.0.2 <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/movpy/>`_ is
now available.

This release if for the Python 2.4 distribution of **Movable Python**,
and is now available for `download
<http://voidspace.tradebit.com/groups.php>`_.

Features new to this release include :

* Now built with Python 2.4.3.

* Other updated modules include :

- pywin32 build 208
- ctypes 0.9.9.6
- wxPython 2.6.3.2
- Firedrop 0.2.1
- ConfigObj 4.3.1
- Wax 0.3.33

* Scripts (and ``customize.py``) are now executed in a specific
namespace, no
more movpy cruft.
* When entering interactive mode (``movpy -``), any *additional*
command line
arguments are passed to IPython.
* ``imp.find_module`` has been fixed to work with modules contained in
the
zipfile. This fix doesn't write any temporary files, but
``imp.load_module``
has been patched to accept a ``StringIO`` instance.
* Built in support for *matplotlib* interactive sessions. (``movpy -
pylab``)
* Verified that ``__future__`` statements are handled correctly.
* New look documentation and website.

To try the new `matplotlib <http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/>`_
support, you'll need the `matplotlib files
<http://www.voidspace.org.uk/matplotlib.zip>`_ in your ``lib/``
directory. You can then run the following at the command line :

``movpy.exe - -pylab``

This should drop you straight into a IPython session, with pylab
enabled.
