Hi Ali,

Python can be "extended" to use external libraries, as long as we can call
them from C.  There's a tutorial for C programmers here:

    http://docs.python.org/ext/ext.html

There are several projects out there to make the process less painful.
One of these is SWIG:

    http://www.swig.org

and there are several other packages out there, including the PyRex
project:

    http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/

In short, if you can do a C function call, you can integrate it with
Python, and it might not even be too bad.  If you have a particular
example in C, I'm sure that one of us here would be happy to demonstrate
how to expose that function in Python.


Good luck!
