What is lxml?
=============

lxml is the most feature-rich and easy-to-use library for processing XML and HTML in the Python language.
It's also very fast and memory friendly, just so you know.

For an introduction and further documentation, see `doc/main.txt`_.

For installation information, see `INSTALL.txt`_.

lxml has been downloaded from the `Python Package Index`_ more than
two million times and is also available directly in many package
distributions, e.g. for Linux or MacOS-X.
