Great you translated it, yes indeed Pilas is great for programming
learning.  A internationalization effort was made last year that may
end in Pilas running in your own language, so in Spanish you could do
"mono.sonreir()" and English "monkey.smile()".  I hope that gets
landed soon.

The activity was made in a sprint in Argentina.  Is a bit hackish,
because it has a big binary with all the Qt dependencies, and works
only in XO 1.5 with build 11.3 .  Would be great to see a Cairo port
of the engine, it also has a PyGame version (was the original) but is
unmaintained.

> I can only get it to execute in immediate mode, I expect you can run it from Pippy or Terminal/python but I get import errors when I try

I did the dbus communication between GTK (toolbar) and Qt (canvas),
that may be the issue to tackle.

Cheers,
