There's also the ctypes module that lets you load and call library functions written in C (or anything else with C calling conventions). IMO, it's a bit easier to use than SWIG, since you don't have to actually generate/install any python modules to use it. But, neither SWIG nor cypes has anything to do with executing a _program_ written in C, which is what I thought you were asking about... -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
