    ...Python's syntax was much cleaner and because I had heard that large Tcl programs could be hard to maintain. Java had the disadvantage of requiring compilation with each change in the code, and the ability to run code in any recent browser was of no use for this project. Java's verbose syntax as compared to Python was also a point against it. Python was just as portable as Java and a much easier to learn and use language. I'd also read the Python tutorial, seen various Python programs and liked t...

    ...Python was a faster way to code (and re-code) the programs that controlled the production pipeline. Python Streamlines Production But Python was not designed just as a replacement for shell scripting and, as it turns out, Python enabled much more for ILM than just process control. Unlike Unix shell scripting, Python can be embedded whole as a scripting language within a larger software system. In this case, Python code can invoke specific functions of that system, even if those functions are w...
