And I want users to use the latest versions of their browsers. And I don't get my hopes high!
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.

It goes to web start-ups heaven.
gcc isn't included with default Mac OS X setup. You need the developer extras in the second DVD.

I believe it's the same for some linux/BSD flavors and installation options.

Be informed. Don't rely on YN only. And use it only if you can't get the same content through easier ways.
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.

Another solution is to make windows like Django models.

2. this a python module that you can include with your app, that just calls the specific gui binginds on real time.

3. No relation with Clutter. The idea is to be gui tookit agnostic.

Re:Ask HN: What does Ruby have that Python doesn't? on Friday August 22, 2008 @09:33AM (#283658)
Rails. but you have Django which is better ;)

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

Oh, and Shoes :)
