Replying to myself, to add this note: I just read the link likehacker.com/learn-to-code/ about Google's "Blockly" a drag and drop tool for building apps that outputs Python or Javascript code (among others) and it might be usable along these lines...I'm sure serious programmers would not use it but maybe engineers looking to make web front ends for data acquisition or data base apps might use it... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
