I've written a Python module. Here is my package definition for it.
Please let me know if I can make any improvements.

+     "This is a implementation of immutable linked lists for Python.  It
+contains @code{nil} (the empty linked list) and a @code{Pair} class for nodes.
+Since a linked list is treated as immutable, it is hashable, and its length can
+be retrieved in constant time.  Some of the terminology is inspired by LISP.  It
+is possible to create an improper list by creating a @code{Pair} with a non-list
+@code{cdr}.")

I sent this message last night, but I don't see it in the archives, so I'm
sending it again.
