I spent some time contemplating how best to port TT to python, and
decided that it was too much trouble.  The Python way and the Perl way
are a little too different.  In particular, implementing the parser in
Python was Hard, since there are a some idiosyncracies in the grammar
that were difficult to model.

Well, you could use op.system or os.popen to simply call tpage or tree,
or a more specialized Perl script that set all the TT-specific
parameters.
