Hello Tony,

  Yes. Groovy is like Jython. You have full access to
all Java libs out-of-the-box (no need for wrappers or
anything).

  To find out how Groovy differs from Python or Java
check out the Groovy Wiki pages:

  *
http://wiki.codehaus.org/groovy/WhatsWrongWithPython
  *
http://wiki.codehaus.org/groovy/DifferencesFromJava

  A great overview is James Strachan's Groovy talk
slide deck titled "Making Java More Funky". See
http://viva.sourceforge.net/republic/2003/10/groovy_making_java_more_funky.html
for details.
