CPython, the primary implementation of the Python language, has a C API for embedding Python into applications and writing extension modules[1]. The cpython[2] package is a binding to this API. It's not a complete binding yet -- there's a couple areas where I haven't figured out how to represent the C-ish idioms -- so it's not yet possible to do things like implement extension modules[3], run code directly from a file[4], or compile Python strings to code[4]. Hackage can't build docs because it doesn't have the Python development libraries installed, so I've uploaded them to http://ianen.org/haskell/bindings/cpython/api-documentation/. If you encounter any build errors, or have wishes / ideas on which parts of the API to add to the binding, please say so. I will add parts as I figure them out, but wanted to get a working version out ASAP so people can play with it.
