rubypython

What

RubyPython is a C bridge between Ruby and Python with a Ruby interface. It’s aim is to make the power of the Python’s great standard library available to Ruby programmers from within Ruby.

h2. Installing

sudo gem install rubypython

Don’t worry if you got some ugly output from RDOC and RI.

The basics

Check out the RDOC pages at http://rubypython.rubyforge.org/rdoc

I have only tested this on Mac OS 10.5 with Python 2.5. If anyone has issues with another setup let me know and I’ll do what I can.
