I've heard of an incomplete Python to C++ translator called "Shedskin" http://pycode.com/modules/?id=40&PHPSESSID=1919541171352770795c2bcee95b46bd There's also a GNU project afoot for a Python to Scheme translator which I saw on http://savannah.gnu.org but now cannot find. This would be an interesting project, I suppose you'd write it in Python, then it could bootstrap itself into Scheme and C. Scheme can be translated to C using chicken: http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/index.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
