The problem when using Python instead of C for OS development is that
C was *specifically designed* to create an OS, while Python was designed

be wise to use a language that is suited for that purpose. If you
dislike C so much and prefer Python so much more, your first step should
be to design a Python dialect that is more appropriate for writing OS's.
But I thought Python was an all-purpose language. After all, OS's
have been written in Lisp before too.
Pure Lisp? Or a Lisp/C/Asm combo? Lisp has a compiled flavor by the way. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
