Darn, for a moment I thought you'd ported it to X already :-)

I think it would be good to explore creating at least two versions of 
Python for X:

- command-line, treating X as a BSD-like OS.  This should be a 
moderately straightforward port, except to the extent to which there 
could be OS bugs.  I'd love to use this in my work on X; I've never 
had the patience to learn shell scripting since I was first spoiled 
by Python.  I may attempt this...

- Carbonized, with access to the Mac toolbox.  I don't know offhand 
what obstacles there might be, but the Carbon Dater tool could 
probably help us find them ...
