# Routines to force "compilation" of all .py files in a directory
# tree or on sys.path.  By default recursion is pruned at a depth of
# 10 and the current directory, if it occurs in sys.path, is skipped.
# When called as a script, compiles argument directories, or sys.path
# if no arguments.
# After a similar module by Sjoerd Mullender.
