Disclaimer: this is just my opinion and I'm not a pypy developer.

I don't think what you want exists in pypy and I don't think it would be useful. If you need to look at the generated C code (why?), you may probably want to look at cython.

   Hello.
     I am new to PyPy.

     I managed to write a few RPython programs and translate them with
PyPy translate.
     As a few others have noticed, as well, (see for example
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pypy-dev/2010-December/006616.html,
http://grokbase.com/t/python/pypy-dev/124mqreh2r/output-readable-c and
https://bugs.pypy.org/issue1220), the generated C code is very cryptic
(when compared to the input RPython script).
     As far as I understand, this is so because of the following facts:
     - the RPython code gets compiled to Python bytecode and then
translated to more basic operations (an IR which I think it does not
have a particular name in the PyPy toolchain - or does it? :) )
     - heavy optimizations are being applied on this IR before
generating code with the C backend.

     So, is there any simple way to generate more readable C code (more
similar, if possible, to RPython script) - maybe some translate.py
options I am missing?

   Thank you,
     Alex
