| SWIG is a software development tool that connects programs written in |
| C and C++ with a variety of high-level programming |
| languages. SWIG is primarily used with common scripting languages |
| such as Perl, Python, Tcl/Tk, Ruby, Guile and MzScheme, however the list of |
| <a href="compat.html#SupportedLanguages">supported languages</a> also includes |
| non-scripting languages such as Java, OCAML and CHICKEN. SWIG is most |
| commonly used to create high-level interpreted programming |
| environments, user interfaces, and as a tool for testing and prototyping C/C++ |
| software. SWIG may be freely used, distributed, and modified for commercial |
| and noncommercial use. |
