Python is slower than C, yes, but the real question is whether or not it is so slow as to require a viewer implementation to be in C. IMHO, it is so easy and fast to code something in python and see whether it works right away compared to the same thing using C. Sometimes you get the results with python where you'd still be writing a Makefile had you decided to use C. Having said that, I agree C is a much better choice for dealing with huge waveforms. But in any case I recommend using glade, coding GUIs using C and gtk only is a nightmare. -- Ivan Stankovic, [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Protect your digital freedom and privacy, eliminate DRM, learn more at http://www.defectivebydesign.org/what_is_drm"; _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
