From f0063afa71bc7e71f19d174acc2fde26f0c11850 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben McGinnes Date: Tue, 15 May 2018 13:13:16 +1000 Subject: docs: python bindings HOWTO - DITA XML version * Due to the org-babel bug which breaks Python source code examples beyond the most simple snippets, ported the HOWTO to a source format which I *know* for sure won't break it. * Details of the org-mode bug is in https://dev.gnupg.org/T3977 * DITA project uses DITA-OT 2.x (2.4 or 2.5, IIRC) with support for DITA 1.3. * source files were written with oXygenXML Editor 20.0, hence the oXygenXML project file in the directory; however only the .ditamap and .dita files are required to generate any output with the DITA-OT.

This package is the origin of these bindings, though they are somewhat different now. For + details of when and how the PyME package was folded back into GPGME itself see the + Short History documentShort_History.org and/or + Short_History.html. in the Python bindings docs/ + directory.The lang/python/docs/ directory in the GPGME + source.

+

The PyME package was first released in 2002 and was also the first attempt to implement a + low level binding to GPGME. In doing so it provided access to considerably more + functionality than either the python-gnupg or gnupg + packages.

+

The PyME package is only available for Python 2.6 and 2.7.

+

Porting the PyME package to Python 3.4 in 2015 is what resulted in it being folded into the + GPGME project and the current bindings are the end result of that effort.

+

The PyME package is available under the same dual licensing as GPGME itself: the GNU + General Public License version 2.0 (or any later version) and the GNU Lesser General Public + License version 2.1 (or any later version).
