1 Welcome to Pyd!
2
3 This package is composed of two separate parts:
4
5   * CeleriD - An extension to Python's Distutils that is aware of D.
6   * Pyd - A library for D that wraps the Python API.
7
8 CeleriD was originally written by David Rushby, and Pyd is written by Kirk
9 McDonald. Pyd uses a number of additional libraries; see credits.txt for
10 details. These libraries are contained in the "infrastructure" directory.

12 INSTALLATION
13
14 In the easiest case, you just need to say:
15
16     python setup.py install
17
18 while in the root directory of the project. This will place CeleriD in Python's
19 site-packages directory, and Pyd lives inside of CeleriD.
20
21 The easiest time will be had if both D and Python are on the system's PATH.
22 This is not required, however:
23
24   * On Windows, only the DMD compiler is supported. If it is not found on the
25     PATH, CeleriD will check the DMD_BIN environment variable.
26   * On Linux, only the GDC compiler is supported. If it is not found on the
27     PATH, CeleriD will check the GDC_BIN environment variable.
28
29 Examples of using Pyd may be found in the "examples" directory. The full
30 documentation may be found on Pyd's website:
