Because the translation framework bridges such a large gap in languages, it would take significant effort to pin down a human-usable PyPy API at the C level. I don't know what your other options are, but they are almost certainly easier than creating a C-API for PyPy. :) -- Regards, Benjamin _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
