Hmm. If it's to be an educational platform, I would recommend doing something like the W3Schools "tryit" page [1] and just go back to the server each time. You have potential security issues to watch out for (so it may be worth chrooting your interpreter), but it's sure to be easier than rewriting the entire interpreter in another language. You would have to maintain your implementation as the language evolves, keep it bug-free, etc, etc. ChrisA [1] eg http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_basic -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
