DreamPie 1.1 released!

[Noam]

This is a feature release of DreamPie. This release adds a bunch of
cool features:

* AutoParen will automatically type parentheses and possible quotes
when you press the space key after a function or a method.
For example, "execfile<space>" will be turned into "execfile("")".
This lets you create "magic functions" that are very easy to use.
* Enhanced function documentation will show you the complete docstring
and source code of a function (if available), and
can be scrolled easily.
* AutoComplete will now complete module names, module members, and
function argument names.

And some additional features:
* The list of recent history files is shown.
* The behavior of the tab key when an AutoComplete list is shown is
more consistent.
* Errors when starting the subprocess are now reported, instead of
DreamPie just being hung.
* A new "configure interpreter" command on the Windows installation
lets you easily configure additional Python interpreters such as
Jython and IronPython.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

It's waiting to be built - it seems that the build servers are loaded.
(Right now, expected in 11 hours - see
https://launchpad.net/~dreampie-devel/+archive/ppa/+build/1870788 ).
Perhaps I should have waited with the announcement until it is built,
but I just couldn't wait...

The problem is fixed in the new version. It wasn't a packaging
problem, it was a regression in lib2to3 which caused it to produce
wrong code. I added a small workaround which fixed it.

Ok, in the meantime I uploaded the package I built by myself to the site.
You can find it here: http://dreampie.sourceforge.net/dreampie_1.1-1_all.deb
