Dear Brett Could you tell me what you mean with "pseudo-C++"? The great thing about ROOT/CINT is that you can write simple and complex macros in (almost) full C++, and if you follow the C++ standard, you can even compile them on the fly :-)) Compiling with ACLiC gives you the full speed of C++. Personally, I do not need Python, Java or any other scripting language, but prefer to write my macros in C++. I create all my code as C++ macros first, sometimes more than 10,000 LOC, and check my code with ACLiC. Why should I use a scripting language which will not be able to give me the execution speed that I need. Nevertheless, I agree that for people used to do their scripting in Python PyROOT would be a great addition.
