did you use a socket to communicate from Pharo to Python?
it does not sound like it it sounds more one way
i am interested in using sockets to communicate between programs
but i haven't done much with it yet
maybe you can include sockets in your generated Python to talk
back to Pharo ?
i got Dolphin Smalltalk to talk to Pharo using a socket
but i kind of forgot about it
did you look at Roassal ? Roassal does a lot of plotting they look very nice
they have mouse interactions and lots of cool stuff
but i don't know how they relate to other plotting programs
i imagine that Roassal tries to do things not done in other programs
but i don't really know i looked at some other plotting thing
also
can't remember Sci something
Roassal has a nice declarative style that is nice
i want to use it a lot in future
i use Roassal in the Moose Pharo image because it is pre installed
i have a rich text tree editing program in Dolphin Smalltalk
that i use like a note taking program like everNote but as a great big
tree
using the old Windows tree widget in Dolphin 6 which i like
and i store a lot of my text stuff in there
and i would like to store and edit Racket programs or lisp programs
in there in a tree format
and your project sounds interesting
about how to maybe generate Racket code that will allow
me to use Dolphin and Pharo and other Smalltalks as a front end
to
Racket or commonLisp etc
because i don't like the GUIs or IDEs of those things
( they're so primative )( but i don't know them well )( they
just look
brittle )( and C like )
and i believe there is a command line interface in Pharo so you can
execute external programs like generated scripts
