I don't know what this sweeping statement means. Who is not satisfied? There are a great many people who are satisfied with Python for many general purpose needs. Python is not “a scripting language”, it's general purpose. It is compiled. It has many implementations and some are faster than others. So I think you'll need to work on your arguments some more, in order to justify what points you're making. -- \ “… it's best to confuse only one issue at a time.” —Brian W. | `\ Kernighan and Dennis M.
