Ian,

I too was a big NeXTer before moving to Python. There was a product for NeXTstep that allowed various scripting languages including Python and others to interoperate with Obj-C seamlessly. You could even pull up a scripting terminal inside your app and start poking away.

I couldn't remember the name, but a search for 'Python' on http://www.stepwise.com gave it up: Objective-Everything. I never used it, but a highly regarded colleague of mine did and he liked it a lot.

Here's a PR:

And here's the company:

Hope that helps.
