+SWIG (Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator)
+
+SWIG is a compiler that integrates C and C++ with languages including
+Perl, Python, Tcl, Guile, Mzscheme, Java, Ruby, PHP, and Ocaml.
+
+SWIG reads annotated C/C++ header files and creates wrapper code (glue
+code) in order to make the corresponding C/C++ libraries available to
+the listed languages, or to extend C/C++ programs with a scripting
+language.
