Stefan, I fully second your decision to drop Python. I asked for<br>
scripting support from the beginning. But I still don't see the need<br>
to support zillions of scripting languages. I proposed Lua because<br>
it's easy to learn and more portable than anything else since there is<br>
LuaTeX. I also think that people learn Lua in order to have more fun<br>
with LuaTeX. But if QtScript already provides a lot of things which<br>
have to be ported to Lua, I would also be happy with QtScript.<br><span style="background-color: transparent; "></span></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I am obviously biased in liking QtScript! -- and agree with <span style="background-color: transparent; ">Reinhard,</span><span style="background-color: transparent; "> that exposure to/and availability of LuaScript is very worth while with the LuaTeX future we face--and who knows if TeXworks would perhaps be able to interact more directly with the whole Typesetting process one day?</span></div>
<div><span style="background-color: transparent; "><br></span></div><div><span style="background-color: transparent; ">Re dropping Python -- no one is really in touch with the user base - especially given the way TeXworks is distributed - generally people only surface when there is a problem, so there would appear to be a significant risk that if people using Python scripts with TeXworks are happy with it, we will not ever know about them, until one day they find a new release of TeXworks withdraws their python support and breaks all their publishing processes!</span></div>
