A series of documents on SGML processing using the Python object oriented scripting language have been made available from Paul Prescod (http://itrc.uwaterloo.ca/~papresco/). 'SGML Processing in Python', 'Using SGML Groves from Python, Visual Basic and other OLE client scripting languages', 'PySgml: A Module (under development) for SGML Processing in Python' and 'An Introduction to Groves for Python Programmers' have been released. Prescod says: "Python is a really easy, incredibly powerful scripting language. You might think of it as a more powerful, faster TCL or easier to use Perl. It really combines the best features of other scripting languages and borrows many neat features from the Great Languages from history (Simula, SmallTalk, Lisp, Algol)."
