    So, it would be relatively easily to generate a standard

python module?

Without more context I don't know what you mean by "generate a standard Python module".

Sorry: the intent is to generate a python module containing enough information to compile any 'standard' C extension to python without makefiles and on any platform.

Note: the assumption is that the extension builder is the same system as that which compiled Python. So a C compiler is available by assumption. ------------------------------------------------------- John Skaller email: skaller@maxtal.com.au http://www.maxtal.com.au/~skaller phone: 61-2-96600850 snail: 10/1 Toxteth Rd, Glebe NSW 2037, Australia
