I love python - I use it as a utility language to complement my C# programming every day. However, the reason I do not use it as my primary language is - surprise, surprise - not its lack of static type checking, but the size of standalone executes (which embed the python runtime).
Would it be possible to link only the used functions into your resulting executable? After all, a typical application might only use 20% of everything that is in the Python .dlls. The same applies to wxPython - it would be great if you could only link in what you need. Would it be possible to write such linkers at all (maybe based on GCC)? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
