- configure supports a new option --enable-unicode, with the values

ucs2 and ucs4 (new in 2.2a1). With --disable-unicode, the Unicode

- A new configure option --enable-framework builds a Mac OS X framework,

- The floor division operator // has been added as outlined in PEP
|

238. The / operator still provides classic division (and will until
|

Python 3.0) unless "from __future__ import division" is included, in

which case the / operator will provide true division. The operator
|

module provides truediv() and floordiv() functions. Augmented
|

assignment variants are included, as are the equivalent overloadable
|

methods and C API methods. See the PEP for a full discussion:
