It was a relief for me to see that even a somewhat biased document written by python champions didn't reveal serious advantages over php enough to consider dual language programming. However, there's a general perception of php as a "web-only" language, and all the comparisons I find -this one included- end up comparing the two as web programming languages. What I really need is a comparison regarding pure cli or gui projects. I found one intersting item though: Under the "What does Python have that PHP doesn't?" header, there's a bullet stating that "support for all major GUI frameworks". I know that both php and python have support for gtk. Am I to understand from this statement that python has also support for qt?

If I'm not completely mistaken, I think that Python can even interface with the GNOME libraries. PHP could theoretically do that, as well, if someone went through and created extensions for it all. PHP is an excellent command-line interpreter, in my opinion. I'd say that, in all of my day-to-day PHP programming, about 60% of the code is for the web, with 35% being run from the command line, and 5% magically disappearing, to loud screams of frustration and broken coffee mugs. -- Daniel P.
