New Revision: 325

Modified:
   api/python/trunk/tux.py
Log:
* Only print the API version if run as a program. "Polluting" the
  output of the users of the API is not polite ;-)

* Pint a hint on how to use the API interactively when python is
  launched is non-interactive mode. This is done by using a trick
  checking for the presence of readline in sys.modules. If someone
  knows of a better way...
