Ilya> a number of standard python modules come with a command line
Ilya> interfaces, e.g. pydoc.py, pdb.py , unittest.py, timeit.py, uu.py
Ilya> But it appears that there is no convenient out-of-the-box way to
Ilya> invoke these tools from command line...
Ilya> Basically one either has to write wrappers or to
Ilya> invoke them like this: python /usr/lib/python2.3/pdb.py
