PscyhoPy as alternative to E-Prime?

[neuro2]

We've found that students have had some difficulty with it. The "Builder" 
is not very sophisticated (compared to E-Prime) and there
is still a lot that needs to be done in script which most of our students 
have a hard time dealing with.  And like most scripting based systems it 
works  great if you have a small stimuli set and a simple design but once 
you start building experiments with multiple blocks of stimuli and more 
complex designs (e.g. training studies) the scripts just become massive and 
difficult to change. We've stuck with E-Prime and some students have 
started using another program called Paradigm which seems to be a nice 
compromise between the two (because it uses Python as a built-in scripting 
language) and has a better experiment designer.
