"r#{5}"
or in actual use something like "I have #{me.num_of_children}\n"
much better then Auto conversion
In python "I have " + str(me.num_of_sons) + "and " + str(me.num_of_daughters) +"\n"
does get annoying

Don't (typed) Union types work better for errors(with pattern matching)
In haskell I think a nullable type or possibly error type frequently returned from functions which can error
ie. data Maybe a = Nothing | Just a data Either a b = Left a | Right b instead of (err,result) like in go

Thanks that will help a lot(although I mostly use eclipse these days) but for smaller tasks having to reopen gvim with more files or opening new files can get annoying(also the lack of project/file groups checking).

I found the launchpad bzr code browser not to bad. Launchpad is also more project based then code based. The thing is that sourceforge and launchpad try to give you an overview of the project first while github show the code and a readme and maybe some wiki pages.

python is widely used as a scripting language. If you are on windows they will probably ship with their own python. Even if not they will probably have to use something to glue the main program to the interpreter which will probably not be compatible with any python implementation.
