I really don't find it insane. Young people have much more powerful brains, they just have to learn programming at a younger age. I did it, and I find myself (and others who learnt programming as kids) better programmers than those who learnt in college.

gcc isn't included with default Mac OS X setup. You need the developer extras in the second DVD.

1. The example of the working syntax right now would be:
a = App("test", width=200, height=400) a.insert(Button("close",a.quit)) a.run()
Should give you an idea of what I am thinking of.
I actually have working with wxGlade for a while, and it generates wxPython code, but I am not happy with that.

Seriously, I envy ruby's blocks and being able to redefine a class later in your code (monkeypatching-easy-syntax).
Oh, and Shoes :)
