tclpython version 3.0: a Python package for Tcl

This package allows the execution of Python (version 2.2 or above) code from a
Tcl interpreter, as in:


    package require tclpython
    set interpreter [python::interp new]
    $interpreter exec {print("Hello World")}
    $interpreter eval 3/2.0
    python::interp delete $interpreter


You can actually create several Python interpreters this way, if the
tclpython package was linked against a Python library compiled with
threads support, otherwise only 1 Python interpreter can exist at a
time.
