The builtin exit function is added by the site package "for the interactive interpreter" and "should not be used in programs", according to the manual. We want sys.exit instead. (I didn't know you could pass it a string value, but it turns out you can.) |

Bulletin Butter & Jelly
BBJ is a trivial collection of python scripts and database queries that miraculously shit out a fully functional, text-driven community bulletin board. Requires Python 3.4 and up for the server and the official TUI client (clients/urwid/).
Look Ma, it boots !!11!
It's all driven by an API sitting on top of CherryPy. Currently it does not serve HTML but this is planned for the (distant?) future.
The two official client implementations are a stand alone TUI client for the unix terminal, and GNU Emacs. The API is simple and others are welcome to join the party at some point.
