[haXe] Announcing: Two New Projects

[Lee McColl Sylvester]

Hi Daniel,

I'm glad you're happy :-)  I hate Python, too.  Any scripting language 
that requires that many dependencies deserves a boot out the door, as 
far as I'm concerned.

Yes, I read it as enemy, also.  I named it that as, a) it sounds cool 
and b) it stands for Neko Media Engine.  I'm quite happy with it as it 
stands, though I may replace it entirely with my Allegro wrapper.  
Allegro is far cleaner, faster and more feature rich than SDL, and also 
seems to get updated more often.  I'll leave this idea to the community, 
though, as NME may have a strong uptake when I come to make that decision.

I have a tetris clone written using the NME wrapper, somewhere, but I'll 
have to have a good search for it.  It's based on a C SDL example 
written by some other guy, so I guess I'll have to root him out, too, if 
I'm to release the source ;-)

Regards,
Lee
