Other solutions are definitely open. Indeed, that’s the key question for this project. There are multiple technologies for scripting bindings in Qt apps, but not all of them are ideal for Avogadro2 (PySide is not updated for Qt5, SWIG, boost.python, and PyQt are also possible.) A suggestion I’ve made to other students who have expressed interest is to try taking a small Qt5 app (e.g., one of the Qt demos) and try adding a scripting interface using PyQt or boost.python. The eventual aim would be to enable a script console in Avogadro2 and Python tools, extensions, custom user scripts, etc. Let me know if I can provide more details.
