It won't default to nil if something isn't found, which is an advantage
and does mean it will flag unfound vars. However, you won't get much
more static analysis at compile time than Lua. Some people don't like
the scooping of Python either. I do find Python more robust than Lua and
trust it much more for large scale projects however its speed
performance and bulk put it more in "heavyweight" scripting category. I
like both Python and Lua and see a need for both.

I still need to finish off my networking code in Doris but have been
busy out doing non-computery stuff of late, and a lot of work. After
that I fancy integrating ODE into Doris. But I may go back to q2x before
ODE stuff.

Did you finish the GLUI stuff?
