I don't have terribly much to blog about these days, but who knows - I may feel the itch again sometime soon. Anyways here's what I've been working on for the past week or so: learning Python.
I'm pretty late to the python party, but overall I think it's a pretty decent language. It's lacking a few features (like the ternary operator and switch statement), which seems a bit odd but it's not a deal-breaker. The GUI library prospects are pretty decent, I tried out both tkinter and wxWidgets. Still never managed to get the background drawing properly in my custom (dc-based) windows. But it's decent enough for my use, and I've learned quite a bit :)
If anyone wants a copy of the program just gimme a yell.. But it's not as polished as the widget version, and still only works on OSX. Still, if anyone wants to port a few functions to work with some other music player, then it should work fine on any platform...
P.S: Awesome song...
