What's Inside

• A few convenience wrappers around sphinx.ext.intersphinx and sphobjinv.
• Ideas to support DWIM-like tooling for Sphinx and Hyperlinks, coming from a sweet conversation at pueblo's sketch about adding an inventory decoder for Sphinx, summarized into a feature wish list.
• Code for community operations, alongside software tests and packaging, in order to provide better maintainability and re-use.

Etymology

Anansi, or Ananse (/əˈnɑːnsi/ ə-NAHN-see) is an Akan folktale character associated with stories, wisdom, knowledge, and trickery.

Anansi is best known for his ability to outsmart and triumph over more powerful opponents through his use of cunning, creativity and wit.

Despite taking on a trickster role, Anansi often takes centre stage in stories and is commonly portrayed as both the protagonist and antagonist.

Another anansi package has already been published to PyPI, so we needed to find a different name, and selected linksmith for the time being. If you have other suggestions as long as this program is in its infancy, please let us know.
