Why do you need such a list for?
Of course this is totally objective, but that dosnt mean its not a valid question. If you were starting out a project were thinking of writing it in python, you might want to look at whats out there - maybe python has limitations which stops it being a good choice in some situations (for instance?)- on the other hand you might want to see some shining examples that prove the capabilities of python ;) 'Being written entirely in python' - is a bit tricky, often these applications rely on some specific extension or make heavy use of a backend that dosnt come with python (like pygame, pygtk, or py-gstreamer). Games - See Pygame http://www.pygame.org/projects/6 Utilities/System * meld is a really nice diffing tool for linux - http://meld.sourceforge.net * ubuntu have some of their install tools in python. * txt2tags - a great markup language for doc writing. - http://txt2tags.sourceforge.net/ * sound recording/editing - http://www.jokosher.org Office?? - no idea, openoffice can be scripted in python. Web - * isnt bit torrent python?, probably lots of stuff but I dont know of them ;) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
