Description: Package radical.utils
        =====================
        
        This Python package contains shared code and tools for various 
        [Radical Group](http://radical.rutgers.edu) projects. Sometimes we call it the 
        Radical Kitchen Sink.  
        
        The radical.utils package contains the following things:
        
        * A [URL class](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/url.py) (A SAGA-compliant url parser class)
        * A [Plugin manager](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/plugin_manager.py) (A simple yet flexible plugin manager and loader)
        * A [Config parser](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/tree/master/radical/utils/config) (Config file reader writeer parser)
        * A [Logger](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/tree/master/radical/utils/logger) (Support for color log output and tracing)
        * An [Object cache](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/object_cache.py) (Well, an object cache)
        * A [Type checking module](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/signatures.py) (Type checking for python call signatures)
        * A [Singleton metaclass](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/singleton.py) (Implements the Sigleton pattern)
        * A [Thread wrapper](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/threads.py) (A thin convenience wrapper around threading.Thread)
        * A [Call tracer](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/tracer.py) (Support for call tracing / debugging)
        * A ['which' function](https://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils/blob/master/radical/utils/which.py)(Simliar to the 'which' command line tool)
        
        The package should in general be compatible with Python 2.6.

        Installation 
        ------------
        
        You can install the latest radical.utils directly from [PyPi](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/radical.utils/):
        
            pip install --upgrade radical.utils
        
        You can also install the latest development version (which might be broken)
        from GitHub directly:
        
            pip install -e git://github.com/saga-project/radical.utils.git#egg=radical.utils
        
        If you want to use radical.utils in your own project, include it in your 
        `setup.py` file:
        
            'install_requires': ['radical.utils']
        
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        
        You can generate the documentation yourself with [Sphinx](http://sphinx-doc.org/)
        
            pip install sphinx
            make docs
        
        The resulting documentation will be in `open docs/build/html/index.html`.
