Jython & Alice

Hi everyone,

I've starting using Alice a couple of weeks ago, in class, and got curious about the Jython/Python interface. I downloaded it on my home computer and looked at this link:

http://www.alice.org/bvw02fall/scripting/scripting.html

However, I couldn't find the 'enable Jython' option that's shown there. Does my version have this disabled? What else could it be?

Thanks in advance!

To enable scripting, you need to find and edit the configuration file (named .alice). For details, see http://www.westga.edu/~drocco/alice/scripting.html.

Be aware that the scripting option is only partially implemented in the current version of Alice and can be fairly unpredictable. There are several posts in the forum on this subject - a quick search should give you some additional information.
