<p>This document will show you how to use the Py programs and the Py
library of Python source code modules. Py is the new name for the
project that began as PyCrust. Py is officially part of <a class="reference" href="http://www.wxpython.org/">wxPython</a>,

<p>Besides being <a class="reference" href="http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pie">a delicious dessert</a>, Py is the name for a collection
of whimsically-named Python programs and modules that began as the
PyCrust project. So Py is really several things: a set of standalone
Python and wxPython, so it works equally well on Windows, Linux and
Mac OS X.</p>

<p>This project began with a program I created called PyCrust - an

toolkit. For about two years, PyCrust was hosted on <a class="reference" href="http://www.sf.net/projects/pycrust/">SourceForge</a>.

<p>PyAlaCarte is a Python source code editor. It is designed to have a
simple, single-file interface. As a standalone application, it is
good for simple, short editing tasks. But it is really meant to be
more of an example of how to embed the Py editor into a wxPython
application.</p>

<p>PyWrap is a runtime utility that lets you run an existing wxPython
program with a PyCrust frame at the same time. Inside the PyCrust
shell namespace, the local variable <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">app</span></tt> is assigned to your
application within the PyCrust shell, as well as the PyFilling
namespace viewer.</p>

<p>Py was designed to be modular. That means graphical code is kept
separate from non-graphical code, and many of the Py modules can be
used by other programs. Likewise, other programs can supply some of
required, PyCrust will work just as well with your interpreter as with
its default interpreter.</p>
