a major change in this release is a new dependancy to the astng package

I've been working on a form generation toolkit that integrates well

support Python out of the box. Suggestions for plugins for Eclipse would
I have a wxPython app, conventionally structured
with a Application class derived from wx.App.
My problem is that the app accepts a command
line argument that must be acted upon within the
