I wrote myself a little (apple)script which displays current and upcoming birthdays. It’s not beautiful, it is slow and I am a bit dissatisfied with it - but it’s good enough for now and good enough for me and may be for you.

Feel free to download and improve it - I’d be happy to hear/read about improvments.

The script will might have some issues with people born on 29.2. - but I am to tired to check the behavior of Applescript’s date-class now.

PS: sorry, I don’t know applescript and I did not want to learn it for this micro project - so if I did some cruel stuff, feel free to correct me, but be kind.

PPS: … and you need Growl to run it.

To develope Zope3-application I use Eclipse with pydev and WickedShell (ctrl-shift-c means ctrl-c … I just don’t get debugzope running in interactive mode).
The python-enviroment for Eclipse has got to be the same as for Zope, otherwise you will not be able to use code-completion in it’s full glory.

In Python, I just learned, they mean exactly the same (which is a terrible waste of semantic possibilities *g*).
