python -> C/perl api

[Ken Godee]

I have a python program I need to interface with
an api.

The api is native C but they also have a perl wrapper.

I'm thinking along the lines of "pyperl" or perhaps
pyInline.

I don't feel astute enough in C to create my own wrappers.

Has anyone have any thoughts/experience on either of the
above programs or perhaps a different idea to interface
with the C/perl api?
