Re: [SLUG] Jython - is this a joke?
If you know Python already, Jython can be good for quick scripting. If you know java and don't need more new language syntax in the brain but want quick scripting, try beanshell and/or jedit . From a scripting POV you can get a long way and tie into the gazillons (technical term) of existing java classes with all the advantages of cross-platform etc, etc. Jedit has in-built macros that write beanshell scripts. http://www.jedit.org/ http://www.beanshell.org/ HTH Stu On Wed, 2003-03-12 at 11:50, Jeff Waugh wrote: quote who=Rowling, Jill http://click.unixreview.email-publisher.com/maaaUNDaaWzQQa46tLbb/ It's not April 1 yet but Unix Review sent me this reference to a new book on jython.
