Re: ANN: P4D 1.2
Kay Schluehr wrote: P4D = E4X style embedded DSL for Python but without E and X. The main feature of P4D 1.2 are *Bytelets*. While the primary purpose of P4D 1.1 was the support textual data which can be considered as isomorphic to XML the new release is focussed on binary data. Bytelets are P4D objects that are assembled from hexcode which is reified as a Hex object. Bytelets can also be serialized as Hex objects which makes them apt for low level communication. Bytelets can be used to parse hexcode into other Bytelets of the same structure and Bytelets can be cloned like object prototypes which makes it easy to produce sequences of variations of one Bytelet ( usually you do not derive from a Bytelet but modify a prototype ). For more information see: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/P4D http://www.fiber-space.de http://www.fiber-space.de/EasyExtend/doc/p4d/bytelets.html That's a really bad name for the project as there is P4D (Python for Delphi) already.

However I do not write traditional database applications à la foxpro (I'm a 20 years user of fox...) anymore. Only xml-fed applications.

Maybe I should have written it in quotes factor of 10 ;-) But here are a few points - in Delphi the GUI design itself is done in a graphical environment, making it much easier and faster - auto-scaling of components on a form is very easy (so if the user changes form size ..) - even making everything on a form movable by the end-user is just 1 mouse-click - using the designers style, or the user style is just 1 click - very good feedback, so creating interactive graphs is very easy, cross-hair, slopes, region of interest etc. - a very huge collection of controls is standard available - print / clipboard / export to almost any graphical file format, just 1 line of code but to be honest ... ... I never even tried to write a GUI in Python, ... ... just looked at others examples, ... and still not seen what I can perform in Delphi ;-) cheers, Stef Mientki Good luck...
