Ever try Emacs, but never worked up the courage to get it customized the way you want?  Perhaps you lost patience with it's lack of customization out of the box.  Perhaps you never even tried Emacs because you thought it was too difficult to get working.  Well, this project may have the answer for you.

Emacro will create a customization file for you by asking you a few questions. It sets up some normal defaults for you.  No programming required!  Then you can get on to the task of learning the worlds most powerful editor!

Oh boy.  Has Jeff ever heard of a company called Lotus?  How about Groupwise?

Six-part interview with Guido van Rossum published [Python News]

I started reading this last night.  If you are at all interested in Python and where it came from, this is a great interview.
