OK, what about VPython? Can we do animations such as these

with jmol or tachyon?

I'm curious if anyone has had success with turtle graphics in python.
Can this be done in SAGE?
Hi,
Given that this [1] is called "Turtle Graphics for Tk" (which is
included standard in Python 2.6, 2.7, etc.), it will not work in the
Sage notebook remotely.
That said, for me with Sage-4.7.3 on OS X turtle graphics *just work*
already on the command line. Whether it works or not with a random
Sage install will depend on whether or not one has Tk graphics
support.
Looking over the API from [1], I think it would be really cool to make
a version of this that does work in the notebook. It would be a
great project for somebody to make something with the same API at [1]
that works in the Sage notebook cleanly, using perhaps HTML5 canvas or
something. I would try to do this right now (simply because it would
be really fun), but I don't have infinite time anymore. I don't know
whether I would use (or reuse) any of the code in Python's turtle
module or not.

Also, can we use VPython in SAGE?
