Are you familiar with Python?

I'm beginning to see why the language lists are segregated.

Why is it that every time Perl, Python, or Ruby are mentioned, someone always chimes in that one of the others is better? Can't we save that sort of thing for usenet?

If I had the time, I'd learn all three, and lisp, sather, and lua too. The more options I have available, the better-equipped I am as a developer. That's what CamelBones is about - it's not about competing with some other language, it's about adding another option.

Actually I'm quite familiar with Perl, and I've taken a good look at CamelBones in the past (particularly when I was porting Frozen Bubble to OS X). I'm not saying Python is better than Perl on every account, but in this particular case with about 10 lines of non-template Python code (8 of which are in my tutorial, and the other two in my previous email) he could have something up and running in a NSTableView... which is less work than he already did writing the mock csv-reading code in his email.
