This directory contains support tools for the Python compiler package,
which is now part of the standard library.
compile.py Demo that compiles a Python module into a .pyc file
using the pure-Python compiler code.
demo.py Prints the names of all the methods defined in a module,
as a demonstration of walking through the abstract syntax
tree produced by the parser.
dumppyc.py Dumps the contents of a .pyc file, printing
the attributes of the code object followed by a
code disassembly.
regrtest.py Runs the Python test suite using bytecode generated
by the pure-Python compiler code instead of the
builtin compiler.
