Building the docs
=================
You need to install Python 2.5 or higher; the toolset used to build the docs are
written in Python. The toolset used to build the documentation is called
*Sphinx*, it is not included in this tree, but maintained separately in the
Python Subversion repository. Also needed are Jinja, a templating engine
(included in Sphinx as a Subversion external), and optionally Pygments, a code
highlighter.
