Looks like an interpreted language. It is the basis for writing Bf2 mods as well, and I'm thinking about dabbling in it.

Any info?

I'm not Data, but I have messed around in Python a bit before... Python is, yes, an interpreted language... just like Perl, and others.. I use Perl mostly, but from what I have seen Python is pretty straight forward and has a lot of capabilities .... I had actually thought about getting more into it, myself... the syntax, however, is different than anything I usually use .. but Python is a really good language for a lot of things.. If you do get into it and have any problems though.. I would be glad to look into things and take a look, if the need arose....

Serpent gave you a better answer than I could. I have heard of Python,
they use it here but not extensively.
