        =========
        
        PyLinkbot - A Python package for controlling Barobo Linkbots
        Contact: David Ko <david@barobo.com>
        
        Linkbots are small modular robots designed to play an interactive role in
        computer science and mathematics curricula. More information may be found at
        http://www.linkbotlabs.com .
        
        Requirements
        ------------
        
        This package is built against Python 3.4 . Python 2 is explicitely not
        supported, and other versions of Python 3 may or may not work. Additionally,
        the SciPy <http://www.scipy.org> is highly recommended for graphical plotting
        and more.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The recommended way to install this package is through setuptools utilities,
        such as "easy_install" or "pip". For example:
        
            easy_install3 PyLinkbot
        
        or
        
            pip3 install PyLinkbot
        
        Building
        --------
        
        Coming soon!
        
        
        2.3.0
        =====
        - Updated to Linkbot Labs 0.7.9 library.
        - Changed robot radio communications protocol. It is now possible to "hot-swap"
          dongles and maintain connections to previously connected robots. However, the
          new protocol is not backwards compatible. If you are using Linkbot Labs 0.7.6
          or 0.7.7, please use the PyLinkbot 2.2.2 .
        
        2.2.2
        =====
        - Updated to Linkbot Labs 0.7.7 library. 
        - Changed moveWait() to pure Python function.
        
        2.2.1
        =====
        - Fixed deadlock; Module would sometimes deadlock if main thread called an RPC
          function while an event handler callback function was executing.
        
        2.2.0
        =====
        - Built against new Linkbot Labs 0.7.6
        
        2.1.3
        =====
        - Added missing dlls
        
        2.1.2
        =====
        - Added functions to access TWI
        - Added functions to access Linkbot Arduino shield
        - Fixed an exception-on-exit
        
        2.1.1
        =====
        - Improved robustness of moveWait().
        
        2.1.0
        =====
        - Added functions setMotorPower() and moveJointTo()
        
        2.0.4
        =====
        - Python module no longer disables robot broadcasts on disconnect unless they
          were enabled by this module in the first place.
        
        2.0.3
        =====
        - Internal bugfixes; Renamed some C++ API functions
        
        2.0.2
        =====
        - Fixed getAccelerometer() member function.
        
        2.0.1
        =====
        - Made serial ID case insensitive.
        - Fixed race condition/deadlock when waiting for joints to finish moving.
        
        2.0.0
        =====
        - Refactored back-end from PyBarobo (v1.0.0 series) to work with the new
