Hello,

I am using SWIG for about 7 years now in conjuction with video games. My  
main target language is python (for various reasons). I've basically  
wrapped our whole engine (graphics, physics, sound, math, scene graph,  
vfs, image, smart pointers ...) with SWIG and am using the wrapper for a  
game (demo already works) and various tools like model viewers, world  
editor etc.

Feel free to pm me if you want to know anything specific or want to  
discuss your article.
