Syntax error on Python 2.4.3 #6

Closed dveeden closed 5 years ago

dveeden commented 12 years ago

The script does not work on Python 2.4.3 as found in RHEL5. It returns a syntax error.

To solve this:

  1. Add Python version requirements (or tested versions) to the README
  2. Test for required functionality and return proper, helpful error
  3. As last resort: test for minimal version and return error/warning

I added https://github.com/isnotajoke/vSPC.py#requirements. I played with some ways to achieve 2 and 3, but didn't come up with anything that I liked well enough to include in the code, so the unintuitive error messages are still there.

Python 2.4 is pretty dead?
