Description: ================
        bitstring module
        ================
        
        **bitstring** is a pure Python module designed to help make
        the creation and analysis of binary data as painless as possible.
        
        BitString objects can be constructed from integers, hexadecimal,
        octal, binary, strings or files. They can be sliced, joined,
        reversed, inserted into, overwritten, etc. with simple functions
        or slice notation. They can also be read from, searched, and
        navigated in, similar to a file or stream.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        To install run the ``setup.py`` script with the 'install' argument::
        
        python setup.py install
        
        This should put ``bitstring.py`` in your ``site-packages`` directory. You may
        need to run this with root privileges on Unix-like systems.
        
        Alternatively just copy the ``bitstring.py`` file to where you want it!
        
        If you're using Windows then there is an installer available from the
        downloads tab on the project's homepage.
        
        Unit Tests
        ----------
        To run the unit tests::
        
        python test_bitstring.py
        
        The unit tests should all pass for Python 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6.
