I suppose I really don't have a choice, but I have decided to try to transcribe all of my code from V2.6 to V2.7 and, therefore, from VC to Python. ::sigh:: It's a really sad event for me. I like VC. Everyone liked VC. Alas, though, it's days are apparently numbered. Barring, of course, some sort of divine intervention (coughcoughvecnacoughcoughtsbcoughcough), I think poor VC is going to go down the drain. And that's too bad; it was a good language, despite its many, many, many bugs and little instabilities. VC, a requiem I sing for thee.
But enough ranting from me. I'm just letting you all know that, because I'm about to jump into a language I am in no way familiar with, I'm going to need A LOT of help. And probably soon. So keep your eyes on the help boards. . . please. Thanks.

Last weekend I wrote a program (in Python, no less) that automatically converts from VC syntax to Python syntax. Granted, this isn't a complete solution for translating a game to v2.7, since it doesn't convert library calls, pointer magic, etc. But most of the conversion from VC to Python is purely mechanical, and the converter does a lot of the gruntwork.
If you (or anyone else out there) is interested, drop me a line.
