Re: [pygame] Scripting language

Sorry, I disagree (let's flaaaaaame!!  ;) )

When you initially cook up a 'little scripting language', and there it sits,
dripping wet and shining new, it usually does what you want.  Pretty much.  Almost.

Then you go to add something.   Then something else.   Then you find a bug....

Pretty soon you find yourself wondering "Gee, I've basically re-written
something that already exists and works better than what I've done anyway".

Been there!  Done that!

My 2c!  :)
