+ SIP is a tool that makes it very easy to create Python
+ bindings for C and C++ libraries. It was originally
+ developed to create PyQt, the Python bindings for the Qt
+ toolkit, but can be used to create bindings for any C or C++
+ library.
+
+ SIP comprises a code generator and a Python module. The code
+ generator processes a set of specification files and
+ generates C or C++ code which is then compiled to create the
+ bindings extension module. The SIP Python module provides
+ support functions to the automatically generated code.
