I had originally fallen in love with Ruby with the hopes of being able to use it on 16-bit DOS computers, but didn’t turn out to be possible. Since then I had stuck with it to tinker around quite a lot. But it turns out that a vast amount more programs are written in Python. Since my experiences with Ruby GUI toolkits were just horrifying, and all the Python GUI stuff I’ve seen is awesome, I think I’ll check things out.
I didn’t end up looking into Python much, but I have a bunch of notes.
