BSDDB corruption

Extending Python

What startet as a quick mockup hack of wacomcpl (which is written in TCL/TK and rather ugly IMHO) turned out to be a self-burdened lesson in extending Python via C. Surprisingly, as there’s mostly no documentation at all in many even popuplar OSS, there is not even a tutorial, it is also very good.
