Hi,
I just discovered today that Bill Casselman, author of the brillant book Mathematical Illustration using PostScript has realised a new Python package called PiScript. I should now quote him :
PiScript is an interface to PostScript graphics, written in the well known programming language Python. It allows one to do basic programming in Python, but defines certain operators that interface very directly to the graphics commands in PostScript, which in turn produce PostScript files (and figures) as output. One of its best features is that inserting text into figures, even text produced by TeX, is very easy.
PiScript seems very young, and there are some known problems with it rendering TeX labels on a Windows machine, but Bill seems to be working on it, and a fix will be given soon.
Note: Disqus comments should now render the name of the post instead of the name of the blog. Sorry, my mistake : I have given all the pages the same name in my templates, and Disqus uses it for rendering.
