Pyrex 0.9.3 is now available:

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

Highlights of this version:

   - Types defined with a ctypedef in a 'cdef extern from' block
     are now referred to by the typedef name in generated C code,
     so it is no longer necessary to match the type in the C
     header file exactly.

   - Some bugs introduced by the recent changes to the handling
     of string literals have been fixed.

Plus several other enhancements and bug fixes -- see the
CHANGES file in the distribution for details.


What is Pyrex?
--------------

Pyrex is a new language for writing Python extension modules.
It lets you freely mix operations on Python and C data, with
all Python reference counting and error checking handled
automatically.
