Thanks to sethbc for pointing out: |

python |
| 12 |
help() |

portage |

Now after looking at that I'm totally scared off writing Python code t |
| 16 |
deal with it. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
My previous Python experience was limited to setting up some C code I |
| 19 |
have (http://mvs.sf.net/) to use Python configuration files and set up |
| 20 |
scenes with Python scene descriptions |
| 21 |
(http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/mvs/mvs/vis/starfishJK16spread.py?rev=1.2&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup) |
| 22 |
that called back to C for everything. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
I'm going to write some C++ or Java instead for what I want. Python |
| 25 |
seems to lack the Sets and other sequence datatypes that would be |
| 26 |
greatly useful. |
