Weave kinda does this - you can use it write inline C code, which it extracts and compiles for you. (http://scipy.org/Weave) You might also want to look at Pyrex and/or Cython, which let you write in a Python-like language that is compiled to C. (http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/greg.ewing/python/Pyrex/ and http://cython.org). Depending on what you want to do in C, just writing it as a normal shared library and calling it with ctypes might also be an effective solution. (in the standard library, as of 2.5) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
