asciitable 0.7.0

Version 0.7.0 of asciitable (an extensible module for reading and
writing ASCII tables) is now available.  This release includes the
following key features:

- Added support for reading and writing LaTeX tables
 (contributed by Moritz Guenther).
- Improved the CDS reader by better supporting multi-file
 tables (contributed by Frederic Grollier).
- Refactored the code into a package with functionally distinct
modules.
- Added a "type" attribute in the Column class that provides the
 type of a column as IntType, FloatType, or StrType.

Please see: http://cxc.cfa.harvard.edu/contrib/asciitable/

Cheers,
Tom Aldcroft

ANN: pyparsing 1.5.6 released!

After about 10 months, there is a new release of pyparsing, version
1.5.6.  This release contains some small enhancements, some bugfixes,
and some new examples.

Most notably, this release includes the first public release of the
Verilog parser.  I have tired of restricting this parser for
commercial use, and so I am distributing it under the same license as
pyparsing, with the request that if you use it for commmercial use,
please make a commensurate donation to your local Red Cross.

Change summary:
---------------
- Cleanup of parse action normalizing code, to be more version-
tolerant,
  and robust in the face of future Python versions - much thanks to
  Raymond Hettinger for this rewrite!

- Removal of exception cacheing, addressing a memory leak condition
  in Python 3. Thanks to Michael Droettboom and the Cape Town PUG for
  their analysis and work on this problem!

- Fixed bug when using packrat parsing, where a previously parsed
  expression would duplicate subsequent tokens - reported by Frankie
  Ribery on stackoverflow, thanks!

- Added 'ungroup' helper method, to address token grouping done
  implicitly by And expressions, even if only one expression in the
  And actually returns any text - also inspired by stackoverflow
  discussion with Frankie Ribery!

[ANN] guiqwt v2.1.4

Hi all,

I am pleased to announce that `guiqwt` v2.1.4 has been released.

Based on PyQwt (plotting widgets for PyQt4 graphical user interfaces) and on the scientific modules NumPy
and SciPy, guiqwt is a Python library providing efficient 2D data-plotting features (curve/image
visualization and related tools) for interactive computing and signal/image processing application development.

Complete change log is now available here:
http://code.google.com/p/guiqwt/wiki/ChangeLog

Documentation with examples, API reference, etc. is available here:
http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/

This version of `guiqwt` includes a demo software, Sift (for Signal and Image Filtering Tool), based on
`guidata` and `guiqwt`:
http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/sift.html
Windows users may even download the portable version of Sift 0.2.3 to test it without having to install anything:
http://code.google.com/p/guiqwt/downloads/detail?name=sift023_portable.zip

When compared to the excellent module `matplotlib`, the main advantages of `guiqwt` are:
  * Performance: see http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/overview.html#performances
  * Interactivity: see for example http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/plot.png
  * Powerful signal processing tools: see for example http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/fit.png
  * Powerful image processing tools:
    * Real-time contrast adjustment: http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/contrast.png
    * Cross sections (line/column, averaged and oblique cross sections!): http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/cross_section.png
    * Arbitrary affine transforms on images: http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/transform.png
    * Interactive filters: http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/imagefilter.png
    * Geometrical shapes/Measurement tools: http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/image_plot_tools.png
