A ctypes interface to the TURTLE library

# A ctypes interface to the TURTLE library
( **T**opographic **U**tilities for t**R**ansporting par**T**icules over
  **L**ong rang**E**s )

## Description

This is yet an incomplete Python interface to the [TURTLE][TURTLE] library.
It is a pure Python package using ctypes. Note that it does not ship with
[TURTLE][TURTLE] which must be installed separately.

Currently only the `turtle_ecef` and `turtle_map` objects have been
encapsulated, as `cturtle.Ecef` and `cturtle.Map` Python classes. Feel free to
contribute with a [pull request][PR] if you need other [TURTLE][TURTLE] objects
to be integrated.

## Installation

From [PyPi][PyPi], e.g. using `pip`:
```bash
pip install --user cturtle
```
One can also do a manual install by copying the [cturtle.py][cturtle] source
file.

In addition the [TURTLE][TURTLE] library **must** be installed separately as a
shared library in a visible location, e.g. registered to `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
on nix.
