1 Using library in-place

2 ======================

3

4 To use the library in-place, without installing, you have to add it's

5 directory to PYTHONPATH.

6

7 e.g, type this in your shell::

8

9 export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`

10

11 alternatively, you can type::

12

13 . ./SETPATH

14

15 which adds the right path to PYTHONPATH and also adds 'utils' directory

16 to PATH.

17

18 NEWS file

19 =========

20

21 NEWS file contains news that are important to the library users, not to the

22 devels. It must contain a word abot every change in any interfaces. It may

23 contain a word about bugfix, if that bugfix was important and could cause users

24 some grief. It must not contain anything else.

25

26 The file grows upwards (like blog, so that all the most important things are at

27 the top, like)
