Pyrex 0.3.3 is now available:

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

Another slew of minor improvements:

   - Can assign any pointer type to void * without casting
   - File names in error messages no longer quoted (this was
     apparently confusing some editors)
   - Problems with using array in pointer context fixed
   - Default arguments in extension type methods fixed
   - Quote chars embedded in triple-quoted strings fixed
   - Runtime crash when using *args fixed

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.
