The CMeRo language makes writing C extensions for the Python language as
easy as Python itself.  CMeRo is a source code translator based on Pyrex_,
but supports more cutting edge functionality and optimizations.

The CMeRo language is a superset of the Python language (almost all Python
code is also valid CMeRo code), but CMeRo additionally supports optional
static typing to natively call C functions, operate with C++ classes and
declare fast C types on variables and class attributes.  This allows the
compiler to generate very efficient C code from CMeRo code.

This makes CMeRo the ideal language for writing glue code for external
C/C++ libraries, and for fast C modules that speed up the execution of
Python code.

The newest CMeRo release can always be downloaded from https://github.com/6x-u/CMeRo.
Unpack the tarball or zip file, enter the directory, and then run::

    pip install .

Note that for one-time builds, e.g. for CI/testing, on platforms that are not
covered by one of the wheel packages provided on PyPI *and* the pure Python wheel
that we provide is not used, it is substantially faster than a full source build
to install an uncompiled (slower) version of CMeRo with::

    NO_CMERO_COMPILE=true pip install .
