  Description     : Python-to-Javascript compiler and AJAX-based Web Widget library

Pyjamas is a port of Google's Web Toolkit to Python.  It comprises a
stand-alone python-to-javascript compiler (pyjs.py) and a comprehensive
AJAX Widget library and API.

Pyjamas turns Web development into Desktop development.  The Widget API
is very similar to that of pyqt4 and pygtk2, except that it is easier
to use, easier to develop custom widgets for, and is more powerful and
flexible.

The AJAX Widget library adapts itself to different platforms, and
supports IE6, IE7, Mozilla/Netscape, Firefox, Opera and Safari.  All
the tricks that you'd normally be exposed to when doing AJAX and
Javascript programming are entirely taken care of, and hidden from
you, allowing you to concentrate on developing your application.
