[Pythonmac-SIG] aeve versus AppScripting versus AppleScript

[Bernard Bernu]

Chris,
Thanks for your reply. I apologize : I should have read first the
doc you mentioned.

I agree with you that this sounds a standard C extension problem.
Now for debugging and analyzing data I'd like to do lots of curves,
3d plots, ...
I'm using Smile (an AppleScript app) that works perfectly.
( http://www.satimage.fr/software/en/index.html )
So I'd like to communicate between AppleScript and Python.
But I'm very new in AppleScript and I could not see
which of aeve or AppScripting would be the best for that.
Mainly, I want to take numbers, vectors of numbers and
matrices from the application and make graphic analysis
in Smile.

I already use numarray and this is great.
