dont listen to them my friend. python sucks. the only reason to use it is the libraries. otherwise use lua if you want a similar scripting language that doesnt care if you forget a space key
"Use lua if you want a language that allows you to code in a crappy way" is a good argument
sure, but for small simple things (eg. something otherwise done in shell scripting), it is convenient and very simple, with consistent syntax. dont get me wrong: i love compiled languages
