Hello,
Actually I did the opposite to be able to use Python 3 libraries from Pharo.
It is not complete, but you may want to take a look at it [1]. Using
this lib
you can craft a Python 3 AST and generate its source code.
I guess there is a way to access the AST of a Python program using the API.
Now, you have to see if it is always possible to convert a Python AST to
a Pharo AST.
One day, I read about someone that converted Python to Ruby (or the
opposite) using
bytecode translation. Maybe it is another way to do it.
