I'm happy to report that cython serves 100% as a drop-in replacement for pyrex. It does throw a few warnings to do with the binding code, but it builds fine at this current time with cython 0.16. Best of all, one can specify the desired python version on the cython command-line, so it will be easy for distros who wish to build both python 2, and python 3 bindings. As a next step, I'll work on a patch to patch to move brltty to cython. Luke _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
