Python is a lot more fun than C++ ;-) Anyway no need to use one or the other... I've done projects where we've embedded python into into a large C++ program to give easy scriptability to our application in a real language. I've also done the reverse - embedded C/C++ into python. And for the really easy option there is ctypes. Given a blank canvas I'd start with python and then add a bit of C/C++ if some part of it was running too slowly. If there were existing C/C++ libraries then I'd use ctypes to interface with them. I don't think I ever want to start another large C++ app - been there, done that, got the (mental) scars to prove it ;-) All my humble opinion of course! -- Nick Craig-Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- http://www.craig-wood.com/nick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
