reStructuredText for PEPs
=========================
Original PEP source may be written using two standard formats, a
mildly idiomatic plaintext format and the reStructuredText format
(also, technically plaintext). These two formats are described in
PEP 9 and PEP 12 respectively. The ``pep2html.py`` processing and
installation script knows how to produce the HTML for either PEP
format.
Original PEP source should be written in reStructuredText format,
which is a constrained version of plaintext, and is described in
PEP 12. Older PEPs were often written in a more mildly restricted
plaintext format, as described in PEP 9. The ``pep2html.py``
processing and installation script knows how to produce the HTML
for either PEP format.
For processing reStructuredText format PEPs, you need the docutils
package, which is available from `PyPI <http://pypi.python.org>`_.
