PYCOMPILE(1)                                                      PYCOMPILE(1)



NAME
       pycompile - byte compile Python source files

SYNOPSIS
          pycompile [-V [X.Y][-][A.B]] DIR_OR_FILE [-X REGEXPR]

          pycompile -p PACKAGE

DESCRIPTION
       Wrapper around Python standard library's py_compile module to byte-com-
       pile Python files.

OPTIONS
       --version
              show program's version number and exit

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -f, --force
              force  rebuild  of  byte-code  files  even  if  timestamps   are
              up-to-date

       -O     byte-compile to .pyo files

       -q, --quiet
              be quiet

       -v, --verbose
              turn verbose mode on

       -p PACKAGE, --package=PACKAGE
              specify  Debian  package name whose files should be bytecompiled
              (combining with DIR_OR_FILE  will  additionally  limit  list  of
              files)

       -V VRANGE
              force  private  modules  to  be bytecompiled with Python version
              from given range, regardless of the default  Python  version  in
              the  system. If there are no other options, bytecompile all pub-
              lic modules for  installed  Python  versions  that  match  given
              range. VERSION_RANGE examples:

                 o 2.5    version 2.5 only

                 o 2.5-   version 2.5 or newer

                 o 2.5-2.7        version 2.5 or 2.6

                 o -3.0   all supported 2.X versions

       -X REGEXPR, --exclude=REGEXPR
              exclude  items that match given REGEXPR. You may use this option
              multiple times to build up a list of things to exclude
