* manipulation of files and character strings

* generating text and HTML reports
* more...


Installation
------------

Building the documentation
--------------------------

Create a virtualenv and install dependencies ::

    virtualenv venv
    source venv/bin/activate

    # you need the krb5-config command to build all dependencies
    # on debian you can get it using "apt-get install libkrb5-dev"

    pip install doc/requirements-doc.txt

    # install logilab-common
    pip install -e .

Then build the doc ::

    cd doc
    make html

It's now available under `doc/_build/html/`
