doctest support for cython
#!/usr/bin/env python
"""
Cython-compatible wrapper for doctest.testmod().
Usage example, assuming a Cython module mymod.pyx is compiled.
This is run from the command line, passing a command to Python:
python -c "import cydoctest, mymod; cydoctest.testmod(mymod)"
(This still won't let a Cython module run its own doctests
when called with "python mymod.py", but it's pretty close.

Script for use with Pythonista to allow Github Gists for script storage and retrieval. Copy script in full into a new script in Pythonista called "gitcheck". Run the script and it will create 4 scripts starting with "Gist". These can be added to the action menu. See comments for more details.

Generate Bash scripts to run the Anaconda Batch Scripts on Windows
''' Python Shell-Script Maker for Windows MSYS
Creates a bash shell script for all the `.bat` files in the Scripts directory.
This allows for compatibility with MSYS bash.
For example, `spyder.bat` would yield a file called `spyder`:
#!/bin/bash
cmd //c "spyder" "$@"
See http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw/bugs/1902/ for an explanation.

Calling Rust from Python/PyPy using CFFI (C Foreign Function Interface)

This is a small demo of how to create a library in Rust and call it from Python (both CPython and PyPy) using the CFFI instead of ctypes.

Based on http://harkablog.com/calling-rust-from-c-and-python.html (dead) which used ctypes

CFFI is nice because:

  • Reads C declarations (parses headers)
  • Works in both CPython and PyPy (included with PyPy)
  • Lower call overhead than ctypes
