Python for the regular guy

Hey,

On the site, you mention Python as one of the frameworks you build on. I'm a big fan of Python, so I'd like to know where you use it (I assume for the interface and some of the effects). Will it be possible to do Python scripting ourselves?

Regards,

fdb

Modul8 is made of two main layers:

- The core engine that is developed mainly in C++ (with some Objective-C parts for Cocoa communication). This engine is entirely driven through an object-oriented Python interface.

- The high-level layer that is developed in Python. This part is what really makes the identy of Modul8 (user-interface, windows, structures, etc.).

Currently, Python is used only internally. However opening Python scripting to our users will be integrated in a future version.

Best Regards,
Yves.
