This is a python-based host software for reprap printers, in various forms.
Printrun consists of printcore, pronsole and pronterface, and a small collection of helpful scripts.
printcore.py is a library that makes writing reprap hosts easy
pronsole.py is an interactive command-line host software with tabcompletion goodness
pronterface.py is a graphical host software with the same functionality as pronsole

# INSTALLING DEPENDENCIES
## Windows
Download the following, and install in this order:
1. http://python.org/ftp/python/2.7.2/python-2.7.2.msi
2. http://pypi.python.org/packages/any/p/pyserial/pyserial-2.5.win32.exe
3. http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.12.0-py27.exe
4. http://launchpad.net/pyreadline/trunk/1.7/+download/pyreadline-1.7.win32.exe
## Ubuntu/Debian
`sudo apt-get install python-serial python-wxgtk2.8`
## Fedora 15
`sudo yum install pyserial wxpython`
On Windows, download the following, and install in this order:
http://python.org/ftp/python/2.7.2/python-2.7.2.msi
http://pypi.python.org/packages/any/p/pyserial/pyserial-2.5.win32.exe
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.12.0-py27.exe
http://launchpad.net/pyreadline/trunk/1.7/+download/pyreadline-1.7.win32.exe
## Mac OS X Lion
On Ubuntu/debian, do:
sudo apt-get install python-serial python-wxgtk2.8
1. Ensure that the active Python is the system version. (`brew uninstall python` or other appropriate incantations)
2. Download an install [wxPython version 2.9-Carbon](http://wxpython.org/download.php#unstable) (the Cocoa version doesn't work)
3. Download and unpack pyserial from http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pyserial/pyserial-2.5.tar.gz
4. In a terminal, change to the folder you unzipped to, then type in: `sudo python setup.py install`
On Fedora 15 do:
sudo yum install pyserial wxpython
The tools will run just fine in 64bit on Lion, you don't need to mess
with any of the 32bit settings.
On Mac OS X, download and install:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-osx-unicode-2.8.12.0-universal-py2.6.dmg
Grab the source for pyserial from http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pyserial/pyserial-2.5.tar.gz
Unzip pyserial to a folder. Then, in a terminal, change to the folder you unzipped to, then type in:
defaults write com.apple.versioner.python Prefer-32-Bit -bool yes
sudo python setup.py install
## Mac OS X (pre Lion)
1. Download and install http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-osx-unicode-2.8.12.0-universal-py2.6.dmg
2. Grab the source for pyserial from http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pyserial/pyserial-2.5.tar.gz
3. Unzip pyserial to a folder. Then, in a terminal, change to the folder you unzipped to, then type in:
`defaults write com.apple.versioner.python Prefer-32-Bit -bool yes`
`sudo python setup.py install`
Alternatively, you can run python in 32 bit mode by setting the following environment variable before running the setup.py command:
export VERSIONER_PYTHON_PREFER_32_BIT=yes
`export VERSIONER_PYTHON_PREFER_32_BIT=yes`
Then repeat the same with http://launchpad.net/pyreadline/trunk/1.7/+download/pyreadline-1.7.zip
