Subject: Dr. Dobb's Python-URL! - weekly Python news and links (Nov 23)
Date: 23 Nov 1999 08:07:12 -0600

It's been a relatively quiet week on Pythondom.  Those of us in the
States, of course, are mentally preparing ourselves for an onslaught
of fowl, football and the imminent arise of Christmas decorations.

    We have an announcement from Ben Gertzfield of CDDB.py,
    a program to fetch information about CD audio tracks
    online (Linux only; GPL'd).
        http://www.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=551850359

    The main emphasis this week seems to be on Python
    internals, object models and parse trees, oh my.  One
    thread has Greg Ewing continuing his exploration of Ruby's
    internals (and contrasting them with Python). This week
    it's object models:

        http://www.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=551536349

    John Skaller talks about the same subject, showing how Viper
    (his pre-release Python-like language) deals with the same
    issues:

    In an unrelated thread, Greg Ewing provides some hints on how
    to extend Python's grammar:
        http://www.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=551856547

    Michael Hudson announces release 0.60 of his perverse
    bytecodehacks:

    While John Aycock previews an alpha Python decompiler:

    Along the same track, David Jeske announces that work has
    started on pylint.py, a LINT for Python focussing on
    type-inference:
