Raul, 
as I remember from your previous posts, you were trying
to build a stripped off (WRT OS and file system specific 
modules) Python interpreter for an embedded system 
context.

Your mail lets me assume you succeeded :-) Can you 
summarize you experiences when you are finished?

It would be very cool to have a kind of "Minimal core 
Python" configure option in the standard distribution
as a starting point for similar tasks!

About a year ago I was in the position to make 
suggestions for a scripting language in an embedded
application to my ex-employer, with a main focus on 
immediate availability.
I chose LUA, Scheme, Tcl 7.6, Python (in this order),
but have loved to see Python in a better rank. 
Unfortunately the porting effort seemed quite high.

PS: Finally they chose a yucky BASIC interpreter - for them 
a known language available at no cost. What they left out 
of consideration was that there were no interfacing or 
wrapping possibilities (like SWIG) at all...
