This is a Python module that provides the SNNS kernel functions. This should allow much better scripting than batchman and could be a first step towards a replacement GUI (for example using Tkinter). Please notice that this is not very well tested, I'd be happy if you reported problems with it. For usage, please have a look at the files in the "examples" directory and read the PyDoc documentation. Patrick Kursawe patrick.kursawe@web.de
