PyS60 1.9.3 is now here with Touch!
croozeus | 24 March, 2009 20:27
Finally, PyS60 1.9.3 - now updated to Python core 2.5.4, one of the dot releases in the 1.9.x series has been announced less than an hour ago!
Here is the list of improvements and what a list! 
- Good news, the newer version now supports touch interfaces on the appuifw Canvas. An API has been added to the existing appuifw and the function - touch_enabled() is used for checking if the device supports touch input.
- Also a sample application - scribble - is provided with the installation.
- New module - sciptext makes PyS60 more poweful enabling/extending use of services like Application Manager, Calendar, Contacts, Landmarks, Location, Logging, Messaging, Media Management, Sensors and Sys Info.
- Easier installation - now only one file needs to be installed - PyS60 Script Shell (available from S60 3rd FP2 onwards).This should support all ensymble packaged applications in future releases.
- Enabled SSL support for socket.
I believe that the above concrete list of enhancement in the PyS60 version is a Big leap forward towards 2.0
Long live PyS60!

First PyS60 Touch Application Add Python for S60 1.9.3 was the first release to support touch events. In order to give us an idea of how touch detection is.Really nice release once more!

Yes, those improvements are significant. It's good that there is now a standard way to check for touch support; I remember there was at least one thread on the discussion boards about this.
All in all version 2.0 is shaping up to be one amazing package :D
