    PythonCyc 1.0, November 2014
    ============================

    Overview
    --------

    The PythonCyc module provides a Python interface to a Pathway Tools
    application running either locally or remotely. This module has been
    designed to work on the three platforms supported by Pathway Tools:
    Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. Pathway Tools version 18.5 or
    above is needed to use this module.

    This module has been tested under Python 2.6 and 2.7, IPython 2.1 and
    IPython notebook.
