I’d like to a do couple of desktop apps with reasonable UIs. I’d prefer to do them in Python. I’ve tried PIL, SDL, and PyGame. They’re ok, but I keep thinking, why not flash? It looks better, is available on every platform of interest, and runs in browser or out.

I could pick up ActionScript and the various Flash authoring environments, but I don’t really want to. I want to write the thing in Python.

So how about it – how about Flash as the UI for Python, Ruby, or whatever? Is it possible to dissect Flash such that it can be connected up with various dynamic languages?

Note – I’m not talking about the ability to generate a canned flash via Python. I’m talking about an interactive app where Python is integrated into the Flash execution loop.
