[Pyobjc-dev] Templates thought

[Bill B. <bb...@co...>]

Instead of creating a bazillion different templates, how about merging 
the [possibly three, maybe four] variants on Cocoa-Python Application 
and Cocoa-Python Multiple Document Application into one that includes 
support for the Apple Python, the Framework Python and the Fink/command 
line Python builds?

It would simply be a matter of creating multiple targets.  The 
developer could delete ones they aren't using or keep them around -- 
matters not.

It would also create a separate and justifiable reason to maintain a 
Python target that works with all other targets and will eventually do 
syntax checking and compilation of the Python files.

Most importantly, it'll reduce the maintenance associated with 
templates considerably by reducing the amount of copying or 
near-copying that has to be done across multiple templates with each 
change (already a pain).

Thoughts?

If the templates all allow to chose from different Python versions,
fine! Having different templates for single/multi document apps,
tools, etc. does still make sense to me.
