[python-win32] PyCY: a CY type wrapper

[Jorgensen, Jens]

  Ok, I needed this beast so I created it. This compiled python 
extension for Python 2.1 wraps Windows CY values. As I mentioned the 
currency value is stored as a signed 64-bit integer that is scaled by 
10e4. That is, it has precision to 1/10,000 of a unit. You can 
instantiate from a python int, float or tuple of two ints which is what 
Python returns when a Windows function returns this type of value. You 
can add them, subtract them, multiply, etc. all except for invert. It 
can convert to a Python int, float, string, or long. I didn't do the 
type coercion function because I don't know its semantics. I'm just 
putting this up on my personal page for the moment:

If you don't know why you'd want this then you don't need it. ;)

It would be nice of course if the COM guts would return this class (ie. 
this class should be in pywintypes!) and perhaps Mark is interested?
