The project is aiming to build

• the union of Python, OpenGL, and XML. Pyroglyph is a highly interactive and fun python GUI environment in a self-contained object oriented form that offers view-based, layer-based, and constraint-based metaphor for making responsive UI centric applications

• the requirements are just python 2.5 and Pyglet. You can find links to Python and Pyglet from the Links box on the right side of this page.

quick start to see pyroglyph run

• If you checkout the source (recommended) you will need python 2.5 with the Pyglet package installed. Execute ./runpython script from the top level of the checkout, or ./run path/to/your/program. This method is the way I work for now. Look to the apps directory for other tests and examples. general1.lzx or ls.lzx is a good place to start.

How it works: Python is used as the underlying language Instead of ECMA script - with python's signature namespacing support fully applied. A small but nice-featured OpenGL "runtime" is provided that supports the standard operations that a Pyroglyph Runtime should do.

status

The project is fairly mature although the API is not quite complete, although usable for the curious to poke around in (and develop with)
