Guido van Rossum 13c51ecb8c Added more text to the docstring, updated the way the exit status is
percolated out, and some general cleanup.  The output is still the
same, except it now prints "Index: <file>" instead of "Processing:
<file>", so that the output can be used as input for patch (but only
the diff-style parts of it).

This directory contains a number of Python programs that are useful
while building or extending Python.

audiopy		Audiopy is a program to control the Solaris audio
		device, allowing you to choose both the input and
		output devices, and to set the output volume, that can
		be run either as a command-line script, or as a
		Tkinter application.

bgen		Generate complete extension modules from a
		description.  Still under development!

compiler	A Python source to bytecode compiler written in
		Python, including an interface for manipulating
		abstract syntax trees.	Still under development.

faqwiz		FAQ Wizard.
		See http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw.py
		for a live example.

freeze		Create a stand-alone executable from a Python program.

i18n		Tools for internationalization. pygettext.py 
		parses Python source code and generates .pot files,
		and msgfmt.py generates a binary message catalog 
		from a catalog in text format.

modulator	Interactively generate boiler plate for an extension
		module.	 Works easiest if you have Tk.

		of tabs and spaces.

		version of a package (by Jack Jansen).
