## Other wrappers
There are a number of other wrappings into Python of Tox core.
This one uses CTYPES which has its merits - there is no need to
recompile anything as with Cython - change the Python file and it's done.
CTYPES code can be brittle, segfaulting if you got things wrong,
but if your wrapping is right, it is very efficient and easy to work on.
Others include:
* <https://github.com/TokTok/py-toxcore-c> Incomplete and not really
actively supported. Maybe it will get worked on in the future,
but TokTok seems to be working on java, rust, go, etc. bindings instead.
* <https://github.com/TokTok/py-toxcore-c> Cython bindings.

Abandonned. Hardcore C wrapping which is not easy to keep up to date.
