Hi all ,

I have a linux application that needs to run on a python interpreter

Why does it "need to" run "on" a python interpreter?

.So what is the best way to have the same functionalities provided by
"C" to be implemented in python .

1) Rewrite the functionality in python.
2) Separate the functionality into a library and write a python
extension to call into the library (or use ctypes to call into the
library without writing an extension module)

Better solutions may become apparent once you provide more details about
your needs.
