It's only a matter of time before high-level programming like this will take off, IMHO. It still pains me to see someone waste there time with pre-compilation and syntax soup to write some of the new apps we see. My co-conspiritors and I have been pushing pyqt here and there in the commercial domain for a while, and one of the selling points has been the active list and the fast response to bugs (Phil) that is "available".

You're right, the more code we get out there the better, especially because success with python is all about reading and learning (again, my opinion).

If we're showing off anyway (Patrick).. well I've seen quite a few people
lately asking for working real-life examples of pyqt/pykde, here's one. It's
for (Free)BSD not for Linux or Windows but it probably is a nice example of
how PyKDE can be used in a useful way (once again this is PyQt3 and PyKDE3,
no Qt4 yet). Hints, comments, nitpicks are welcome.

It could be ported to Linux (v4l) but I think that one problem is (and it
would show) v4l's inclusion of non-TV hardware. Nice if you have one but it
squeezes the api.

Well anyway, I think this may be a nice example of how to use PyQt/KDE and
a/the larger picture. Because frankly if you don't have any real Python
leverage people are going to ask you, rightfully, why not in C++... (some
free ammo: a Qt C++ object works just as fast from sip/Py as it does
"natively" ater you've instantiated it).

Just my /me too :)
