Re: Benefits over KJSEmbed?

That was the line I always used to sell Python to management... Look! It's a design document you can run :-). I'm really happy that there's so much choice nowadays in bindings. Personally, if I have a suitable problem, I'd still go for PyQt, but I like my languages with as few punctuation marks as possible. Double colons remind me too much of the medical imagery I'm writing apps for nowadays.

Anyway, Cyrille Berger is working on a kjsembed plugin for Krita, and I'm going to get in touch with Jim Bublitz one of these days to ask him whether he can help me with a Python plugin.

Ruby may still need the occasional :: (especiall in RubyQt), but overall its fairly sparse in the punctuaction dept. No semicolons I guess being the biggest difference, as well as using begin and end to define most functions.

Note than you can use an 'include Qt' or 'include KDE' directive if you prefer to have Widget over Qt::Widget, or Application over KDE::Application in your code. Thats much like the 'using' directive for C++ namespaces:

require 'Korundum'
include Qt
include KDE

about = AboutData.new("p2", "Hello World", "0.1")
CmdLineArgs.init(ARGV, about)
a = Application.new
hello = PushButton.new( a.i18n("Hello World !")
a.mainWidget = hello
hello.show
a.exec

Oops, syntax error, it should be:

hello = PushButton.new(a.i18n("Hello World !"))

And PushButton is ambiguous, does it mean a QPushButton or a KPushButton in this case? So maybe use the include directive with care..
