----

This package allows the execution of Python code from a Tcl interpreter, as in:
======
package require tclpython 4.2
set interpreter [python::interp new]
$interpreter exec {print("Hello World")}
puts [$interpreter eval 3/2.0]
python::interp delete $interpreter
======
which outputs:
======none
Hello World
1.5
======
It works by creating one or more embedded Python interpreters and sending them strings to evaluate or execute. Modules can be loaded in the Python interpreter as if it were the real Python program.

Also supports importing the Python3 interpreter:
======
package require tclpython3 4.2
set interpreter [python3::interp new]
======
