Kurt is a Python library for working with Scratch project files.
It supports both Scratch 1.4 and Scratch 2.0 with a single Pythonic interface, and it's extensible to support new file formats for Scratch mods (such as Snap!).
It also includes a parser for converting plain text into Scratch blocks.
Example uses:
- converting Scratch 2.0 projects back to 1.4
- importing thousands of images into Scratch
- importing midi files as play note blocks
- importing font files as costumes
- parsing text to Scratch blocks
- analysing projects
Scratch is created by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab.
