RE: Graph::ASCII::Dia



Yes, definitely. And considering how much I'm paying for Dia, I'd say
I'm still getting more than what I paid for. :-)

For the record, I'd rather program in almost any other language (except
Visual Basic) instead of Python. I respedt Python and Guido Van very
much, but it's just not my style. TCL for lightweight
scripting/extension language and Perl for general-purpose programming
language, would be my choices. But, see the paragraph above.

All in all, the best for Dia would probably be a language-independent
API that allowed adding in multiple scripting languages, as in the Vim
editor.

I also realize that when you come to a project & want to hack on it, you
have to work with what is there.  If that means you have to be flexible
on
languages, then so be it.  How many times have I learned some
proprietary
built-in scripting language so I could solve some problem, never to use
it
again....
