Eric,

I think your recent posts have shown a worldview that's a bit too
Eric-centered. :-)

Not all the world is Linux.  CML2 isn't the only Python application
that matters.  Python world domination is not a goal.  There is no
Eric conspiracy! :-)

That said, I think that the future is bright: Anderw is already
working on a much more intelligent configuration manager.

I believe it would be a mistake to enable curses by default using the
current approach to module configuration: it doesn't compile out of
the box on every platform, and you wouldn't believe how much email I
get from clueless Unix users trying to build Python when there's a
problem like that in the distribution.

So I'd rather wait for Andrew's work.  You could do worse than help
him with that, to further your goal!
