Pyrex 0.4.1 is now available:

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

The main new feature is that you can now deal with
C header files that define structs this way:

    typedef struct {
        ...
    } Foo;

by using the new "ctypedef struct" statement.
See the Language Overview for details:

http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/version/Doc/overview.html#StructDeclStyles


Plus various bug fixes.


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.
