story

It's forked from @luksan original work, which was then improved by @xantares here with Python 3 support.

The original SWIG version had issues with surrogate strings on modern python versions (an issue has been filed), and I failed in working around it so bad.

Reimplementing just the needed stuff using CFFI (and possibly having broken everything else) turned out to be a great idea :)

Something went wrong with that request. Please try again.
