[Nexus-developers] Python

[Hartmut Gilde]

hi peter,

i'm responsible for the nexus/contrib/nxpython bindings and i use it a lot at 
frm2. it works quite reliable for me.
i also tested marks bindings and they are working fine too.
i suppose its a matter of taste which one to use.
i prefer my own ones, cuz it doesnt use an additional wrapping layer (except 
swig of course) and they are easy to use as the syntax and usage is almost 
the same as the c version.
but please be aware of the fact that the nexus/contrib/nxpython bindings 
convert the complete sds data into appropriate python lists and vice versa 
within the swig layer. 

regards,
hartmut
