Detailed Description

Class that grabs a handle onto the currently running casapy Python interpreter shell.

Prerequisite

Extending/Embedding Python with C++
python - matplotlib/pylab

Etymology

A link between Casa and a Python-Interpreter.

Synopsis

This class creates and maintains a link between C++ and the current instance of the python interpreter. ( Wes Young wrote the first part of the constructor, that creates a local python interpreter, and loads "pylab" into it. )

All python commands that TPPlotter runs, are sent into this class for transmission to the python interpreter.

Motivation

To isolate the process of connecting between C++ and Python.
