flufl.enum 3.0

A Python enumeration package.

=========================================
flufl.enum - A Python enumeration package
=========================================

This package is called ``flufl.enum``. It is yet another Python enumeration
package, but with a slightly different take on syntax and semantics than
earlier such packages.

The goals of ``flufl.enum`` are to produce simple, specific, concise semantics
in an easy to read and write syntax. ``flufl.enum`` has just enough of the
features needed to make enumerations useful, but without a lot of extra
baggage to weigh them down. This work grew out of the Mailman 3.0 project and
it is the enum package used there. Until version 3.0, this package was called
``munepy``.


Requirements
============

``flufl.enum`` requires Python 2.6 or newer, and is compatible with Python 3
when used with ``2to3``.


Documentation
=============

A `simple guide`_ to using the library is available within this package, in
the form of doctests. The manual is also available online in the Cheeseshop
at:

http://package.python.org/flufl.enum
