I've recently installed Fedora 3, and have been getting a few bluetooth things set up (i've finally got gnome-bluetooth-manager and gammu working!). One thing I've noticed is that quite a few libraries seem to be using Python these days. Im going to want to be writing a few simple apps to use my bluetooth stuff: Im mainly a Java / c++ programmer (and know a little perl) - but going forward with Linux is there a good argument for learning Python too? If so I might order myself a book!! P.s: Alexander - Im know posting from Gmail so hopefully no more Outlook woes :o)
