+;;; ccpy-style.el  ---  cc-mode style definition for Python C code
+;;
+;; Author:  1996 Barry A. Warsaw
+;; Created:  6-Dec-1996
+;; Version: $Revision$

+;; Keywords: c python languages oop
+
+;;; Commentary
+;; This file defines the standard C coding style for Python C files
+;; and modules.  It is compatible with cc-mode.el which should be a
+;; standard part of your Emacs distribution (or see
+;; <http://www.python.org/ftp/emacs/>).
+
+;; To use, make sure this file is on your Emacs load-path, and simply
+;; add this to your .emacs file:
+;;
+;; (add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook '(lambda () (require 'python-style)))
+
+;; This file will self-install on your c-style-alist variable,
+;; although you will have to install it on a per-file basis with:
+;;
+;; M-x c-set-style RET python
+
+;;; Code:
+
+(defconst python-cc-style
+  '((indent-tabs-mode . nil)
+    (c-basic-offset   . 8)
+    )
+  "Standard Python C coding style.")
+
+(require 'cc-mode)
+(if (not (assoc "python" c-style-alist))
+    (c-add-style "python" python-cc-style))
