> No its not like those 'compilers' i dont really agree with a compiler generating C/C++ and saying its producing native code. I dont really believe its truely within the statement. Compilers that do that tend to put in alot of type saftey code and debugging internals at a high level to get things working in other projects i am not saying python compilers here i havent analysed enough to say this.

Hmm, well what I'd personally find interesting from a computer science
point of view is a app that will take a language specification in BNF
(complete with keywords and all) and output C code which is then
compiled to an executable as normal.  This is how a front-end should
be designed.  A middle-layer for translating common language elements
like lists, sets, etc, could make it easy.
