This package, like all or most of the ``task-*'' Debian packages, is
here for your convenience.  By depending on a number of separate
Debian packages, a task- package makes it easy for you to select and
install those packages by just selecting and installing the task-
package.

You may remove or purge this package at any time without losing
anything, and you *must* remove or purge this package if you intend to
remove or purge any of the packages it depends on.

Overview of the task-python packages

  Install:            if you want to:
  -------             ---------------
  task-python         write scripts and uncomplicated Python applications
  task-python-web     write CGI scripts and web applications in Python
  task-python-bundle  have the entire upstream (www.python.org) distribution
  task-python-dev     write complex Python applications, have available
                        most of the Debian-packaged Python extensions, 
                        and/or write Python extensions in other 
                        programming languages

(Note that you needn't install any of these to be able to use other
packages that are written in Python; the required pieces will be
automatically installed along with the packages that need them.)

You may also want to install one of the following editing environments,
each of which has support for Python syntax highlighting:

    python-elisp (with any of the emacsen)
    vim-python
    nedit
