[PYTHONMAC-SIG] Yes, but can it do... THIS?

[Joseph Strout]

I encountered "Chipmunk Basic" for the Mac the other day.  It's a 
freeware BASIC implementation which can do some pretty nifty stuff in its 
Mac version, such as sprites (shapes which arrange themselves in layers, 
move around without clobbering the background or each other, and provide 
for collision detection).

I've been looking for a language to get some young brothers-in-law into 
programming, and sprites would be a big plus (gives a language "Pac-Man 
equivalence").  But BASIC is pretty nasty by modern standards; Python is 
much nicer.

So.  Any sprite libraries for Mac Python yet?

Thanks,
-- Joe
