I'm pleased to announce the third alpha release of PIDDLE (Plug-In
Drawing, Does Little Else). PIDDLE is a cross-platform, cross-media
drawing API; by choosing the desired backend renderer, your Python
program can generate output to the PDF, EPS, TK, MacOS QuickDraw, a PIL
canvas (and from there to PNG, GIF, JPEG, etc.), and others.

This version adds a unified testing framework, and a number of bug
fixes. To download, visit the PIDDLE home page:

http://www.strout.net/python/piddle/


PIDDLE is written in 100% Python, but some backends require extensions
(such as PIL) or may work on only certain platforms (such as MacOS
QuickDraw).

Comments and feedback are welcome; visit the mailing list at
http://www.egroups.com/list/pythonpiddle/info.html to join the
discussion.

Cheers,
-- Joe
