JoeB and JamieR are working somewhat coherently on a set of python libraries to fulfill all of our command line CDS wants. This is being done mostly to satisfy The Guardian and the SkunkTools project.

I did an 'svn up' in /opt/rtcds/userapps (it might finish in ~1000 years) to get the things that they have so far (in particular, Joe's 'pyavg'). There's going to be some issues since the pylib stuff written by Yuta/Kiwamu has never been integrated with anything and is imported as 'epics' in many python scripts. As we move over to the new stuff there will be a lot of broken script functions since the new libraries are also used in that way.
