1/ Yes I am 8-), and that has nothing to do with being a newcomer. To get
better kick yourself ,and others, forward.

2/ You did not understood me. I DO NOT want any perl-pyhton war (I don't
care). So if it is better written in VB, I will use it. I hope this will put
a stop to this pointless discussion (that I started while wanting to avoid
it)

3/ If other have similar points of view they can mail me directly instead.

That was my question! If any shortcoming where addressed, which ones and in
which way?
I looked at the Scons documentation and nothing stood there that pointed in
that direction. Or did I miss it?
