Quixote is a package that supports Web application development by Python programmers. In Quixote, the templating language is a small extension of Python itself: the aim is to make Web page assembly take maximal advantage of the Python programmer's existing skills.

For thos who are not used with this application an introduction and a set of tutorials on the quixote.ca web site.

Requirements:
Quixote requires Python 2.0 or greater; we do most development work with Python 2.3. Note that Quixote versions older than 0.4.3 did not work with Python 2.2.

Quixote will work with any Web server that supports CGI, FastCGI, or Neil Schemenauer's SCGI. Quixote also supports Apache's mod_python and AOLserver's PyWX. See doc/web-server.txt in the source distribution for configuration information.

What's New in This Release:
Fix cimport bug (caused None to be bound to an imported name that did not exist).
Add Publisher.process(), which is like process_request() except that the caller povides
an input stream and an environment instead of an HTTPRequest instance. Modify the included drivers to use process() instead of process_request().
Update widgets.txt doc file (from Titus Brown).
