Kamaelia's Axon Shell[*] is also very similar. An Axon scheduler runs as a background thread to an IPython interpretor, allowing you to "launch" Kamaelia components interactively, including both pipelines and Graphlines of components. [*] http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/AxonShell.html But then Kamaelia IS designed as a pipeline/graphline (1d,2d,n-d) system from the ground up, so having a shell for it was a logical step :-) ... I suppose the difference between python and MSH is you don't need a separate language, maybe a module or three, but you don't need to modify the language :) Michael. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
