Take a look at Cobra. http://cobra-language.com/docs/python/ http://cobra-language.com/ It is similar to Python, but with a quite a few nice extras and few improved things (eg. no "self", no ":", ...) Possible negatives are: * Requires either .NET or Mono frameworks. * lack of 3rd party libraries ?? Cheers, Brendan.
