"""inspect_pyc module

This is a refactor of a recipe from Ned Batchelder's blog.  He has
given me permission to publish this.  You can find the post at the
following URL:

  http://nedbatchelder.com/blog/200804/the_structure_of_pyc_files.html

You may use this module as a script: "./inspect_pyc.py <PYC_FILE>".
