SimCity and Robot Odyssey.
Anyone know the current status of being able to turn an AST tree
emitted by the Python compiler module back into code after it has been
modified ?
I think Boxer is an interesting middleground between a full visual
scripting environment, and something more visual than typical Python
source code. It's an old/dead project, and I never was able to actually
get the code to run well (in OS 9 emulation), but the paper is
interesting: http://www.soe.berkeley.edu/boxer/papers.html
Thanks Ian - the 'ports' concept in particular is giving me a lot of
food for thought!
