pychains is a C-based python module providing a couple of useful Python types that delegate certain requests (__getitem__ and __getattr__) to other objects. Using pychains one can create dictionaries that are aggregates of other dictionaries, objects whose attributes come from numerous other objects, etc. Documentation, as it stands, is available on the home page as is the download link: http://pychains.sourceforge.net STANDARD DISCLAIMER: This code is *very* alpha. I'm using it in some of my projects and it hasn't crashed in a while so I'm allowing it into the source-compiling public for further testing, etc. I'm suspicious it may be leaking memory and I cannot guarantee it won't do something horrible. PLEASE don't use it where it doesn't belong (mission critical stuff). Regards, Rich -- Rich Harkins <rich@worldsinfinite.com>
