of whimsically-named Python programs and modules that began as the
PyCrust project. So Py is really several things: a set of standalone
programs, including the original PyCrust program, a library of Python
-source code modules that can be used in your own programs, a set of
-decorator classes that enhance the wxPython class library, and as many
+source code modules that can be used in your own programs, and as many
examples of bad "pie" puns as I can come up with. (If you're going to
do something, you might as well do it all the way, right?) Py uses
Python and wxPython, so it works equally well on Windows, Linux and
was using the PyCrust code base to develop programs that weren't just
Python shells any more.</p>
<p>Around that same time, the wxPython folks asked me if I'd be willing
-to move all my wxPython-related projects into the <a class="reference" href="http://cvs.wxwindows.org">wxPython CVS
-repository</a>, and become part of the <a class="reference" href="http://www.wxpython.org/">wxPython</a>/<a class="reference" href="http://www.wxwindows.org/">wxWindows</a> developer team.

+repository</a>, and become part of the <a class="reference" href="http://www.wxpython.org/">wxPython</a>/<a class="reference" href="http://www.wxWidgets.org/">wxWidgets</a> developer team.
I decided the time was right to restructure the PyCrust project.
During the move, the PyCrust package was renamed to "py" (lowercase
"p") and the collection of programs and modules as a whole became
<p>Py also contains a collection of modules that you can use in your own
wxPython applications to provide similar services, either for your own
use during development, or as an interface for users of your programs.
-These modules are the same ones used by all the Py programs. In
-addition, Py contains a set of decorator classes that enhance the
-wxPython class library, by dynamically attaching docstrings and call
-signatures at runtime.</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="literal"><span class="pre">app</span></tt> is assigned to your
+shell namespace, the local variable <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">app</span></tt> is assigned to your
application instance. In this way you can introspect your entire
application within the PyCrust shell, as well as the PyFilling
-namespace viewer. And through the use of the Py decorator classes,
-PyCrust can display wxPython function and method signatures as well as
-docstrings for the entire wxPython library.</p>
