And nice work it is! I don't have swig available to me - looks very
nice(!).

It seems his work and mine are in different directions: his is to
completely cover the entirety of the language (for prototyping, as he
suggests in his README), while I am looking for ways to make the GGI a
usable graphics library for python (and along those lines, any
suggestions you have would be useful.) The packaging of color objects is
one example of this.

Perhaps I should change the name to reflect this, as it is not _truly_ a
wrapper; it's something thicker and gooeyier. Perhaps "PyGGI"? That'd be
neat, as I originally wrote it to implement a hypercard clone called
"Frog".

You know it's time to rethink your design when you can't debug your
