Python for large projects

[Raaijmakers, Vincent (GE Infrastructure)]

I agree, Python is great but Smalltalk still rules...

Especially the development environments. If Python would have had the same IDE it could so much more powerful.
Still don't understand that no commercial products are available that even come close to that.
I would like to pay for it. Mature plugins in Eclipse, a 'P'Builder from Borland.....

Still, nothing compares to IDE's like VisualAge for Smalltalk. Indeed, so productive.

I like Python but for big jobs I really prefer Smalltalk.   It's gets better 
runtime performance for most big apps, especially involving complicated object 
models in memory, and the development environments are extremely productive.

Take care,
Jay
