General usage information

Python is a high-level scripting language.

The python and related commands have been added to your path.

In case you need to link against this library in your code, the following environmental variables have been defined:

  • \$PYTHON_ROOT has been set to the root of the python installation
  • \$PYTHON_LIBDIR points to the directory containing the libraries
  • \$PYTHON_INCDIR points to the directory containing the header files

You will probably wish to use these by adding the following flags to your compilation command (e.g. to CFLAGS in your Makefile):

  • -I\$PYTHON_INCDIR
and the following flags to your link command (e.g. LDFLAGS in your Makefile):
  • -L\$PYTHON_LIBDIR -Wl,-rpath,\$PYTHON_LIBDIR${endlist}
