Good - I'm thinking of doing a Modula-3 interface, but I'm waiting for the name changes...

I have to say that I don't think the 'primes' program included in the BLURB document is a good example of Python's clarity and ease-of-use. We need a clear bit of sample code that makes people say "Hey, this is worth downloading" when it appears on comp.sources.

Anybody like to volunteer some?
