The Python 2.2.2 that appears along with this README file belongs
to the Python Software Foundation, and is available for use
under terms and conditions described in the file LICENSE.

See INSTALL for directions.

I have made few modifications to the Python interpreter, mostly
just got things to build.  The posix (os) module has openpty().

The Python modules include only the .py source, and not the .pyc
or .pyo compiled versions, for space (and download) economy.  These
files will automatically be created as needed anyway.

Bethon 0.5.0 (BeOS native API) is included.  This is the first release
that supports direct inheritance from BeOS API types, thanks to changes
in the Python 2.2 implementation.  The old system, where a class instance
linked up to an API type object (e.g., BWindow) with bind(), still works.
There is no documentation, but the separate Bethon release (also available
on bebits) includes example programs.
