Today, while learning python (with the excellent book Bit of Python), I wondered: What if sugar had a python interpreter and code window which could be toggled on/off, and would stay on top like in the future with bulletin boards, giving a constant access to python power. Say, in the ruler activity a kid could take measurements, and at the same time be assigning them to variables on the side (or on the top), and be computing areas and perimeters. But that's why we have pippy, I hear you say. If pippy took a more 'learn python' or tutor role, then those kids who learned it through it, could seamlessly make use of it everywhere within sugar. Maybe this is nuts, and 'code talks, and s..t walks', so I'm throwing the idea for now. Eduardo
