Alpy Description

Alpy provides Python bindings to the Allegro game programming library. Alpy provides Python bindings to the Allegro game programming library.Requirements:· Python >= 2.0. · Works with Allegro 4.0.x or 4.2.x.If your Allegro version uses dynamic loadable modules, you'll need the 'dl' module in order to make Alpy work properly. 'dl' is shipped with the standard Python distribution, but it is not built by default. If you don't use Allegro modules, set to zero the variable _ALLEGRO_USE_MODULES at the top of 'alpy.py'.Note that Alpy doesn't yet support the complete Allegro API: see the file documentation.txt for a list of what is currently implemented and how it differs from the original Allegro. Don't forget to check too the online help from an IDE or interactive shell (eg: run `pydoc alpy' from the command line).What's New in This Release:· Experimental Windows precompiled binary support.· Basic support for AllegroGL 0.4.x in an extra module named aglpy.· tostring() and fromstring() methods in the Bitmap class for converting to and from raw strings for use with other libraries (PIL, pyopengl, etc.).· topil() and frompil() methods for converting to and from PIL images.· The Python Imaging Library is only required if these methods are called.· All examples have been changed to use allegro_message and be GUI friendly, plus other minor bugfixes.· AlpyError has been replaced with the correct AlpyException in the documentation.
