Probably because Ruby is all hot and sexy nowadays ;-) Though it's remarkably close to Python, apparently. So close that I couldn't be bothered to learn it. In fact, for me personally, Python was about the last programming language I learnt out of intrinsic motivation. I tried to take a look at functional langugages like Haskell and Erlang, but I tend to quickly get bored of toy examples and can learn best if I can apply a new language to a real problem that it can solve better than the other languages I know. Haven't found that killer problem so far ... -- Gerhard -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
