I have corrected my error. And I should have looked it up instead of just assuming. Justin: Wondering about Python support (which I did) should have raised a red flag. I mean, it there were support only for Ruby, there might be a programmer war! Thanks very much for the correction, Juston and Richard! I have corrected my error.
