Does anyone know if it would be possible to create a CPython extension -- or use the ctypes module -- to access Python's own embedding API (http://docs.python.org/api/initialization.html &c.)? Could a Python program itself create a sub-interpreter, and work with it with all the privileges and capabilities that an actual C program would have?
I realize that this may be a bit too... mystical? ... for a lot of people's tastes, but I'm just curious if it's possible. :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
