How about 

    wrapc.

    cembed.

    embedc.

    cipy -- C in Python or C inline Python.

    cip -- ditto.

    sup -- speed up python.

    supuc -- speed up python using c.

    bicep -- blitz inline c embedded in python.

    inliner.

    zipper.

    blitzer.

    embedder.



Are there plans to support other languages apart from C/C++ ?  is it
possible to embed others even?
