        uncompyle6
        ==========
        
        A native Python cross-version Decompiler and Fragment Decompiler.
        Follows in the tradition of decompyle, uncompyle, and uncompyle2.
        
        
        Introduction
        ------------
        
        *uncompyle6* translates Python bytecode back into equivalent Python
        source code. It accepts bytecodes from Python version 1.5, and 2.1 to
        3.6 or so, including PyPy bytecode and Dropbox's Python 2.5 bytecode.
        
        Why this?
        ---------
        
        There were a number of decompyle, uncompile, uncompyle2, uncompyle3
        forks around. All of them came basically from the same code base, and
        almost all of them no were no longer actively maintained. Only one
        handled Python 3, and even there, only 3.2 or 3.3 depending on which
        code is used. This code pulls these together and moves forward. This
        project has the most complete support for Python 3.3 and above. It
        also addresses a number of open issues in the previous forks.
        
        What makes this different from other CPython bytecode decompilers?: its
        ability to deparse just fragments and give source-code information
        around a given bytecode offset.
        
        I use this to deparse fragments of code inside my trepan_
        debuggers_. For that, I need to record text fragments for all
        bytecode offsets (of interest). This purpose although largely
        compatible with the original intention is yet a little bit different.
        See this_ for more information.
        
        The idea of Python fragment deparsing given an instruction offset can
        be used in showing stack traces or any program that wants to show a
        location in more detail than just a line number.  It can be also used
        when source-code information does not exist and there is just bytecode
        information.
        
        Requirements
        ------------
        
        This project requires Python 2.6 or later, PyPy 3-2.4, or PyPy-5.0.1.
        Python versions 2.4-2.7 are supported in the python-2.4 branch.
        The bytecode files it can read has been tested on Python bytecodes from
        versions 1.5, 2.1-2.7, and 3.0-3.6 and the above-mentioned PyPy versions.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        This uses setup.py, so it follows the standard Python routine:
        
        ::
        
            pip install -e .
            pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
            python setup.py install # may need sudo
            # or if you have pyenv:
            python setup.py develop
        
        A GNU makefile is also provided so :code:`make install` (possibly as root or
        sudo) will do the steps above.
        
        Testing
        -------
        
        ::
        
           make check
        
        A GNU makefile has been added to smooth over setting running the right
        command, and running tests from fastest to slowest.
        
        If you have remake_ installed, you can see the list of all tasks
        including tests via :code:`remake --tasks`
        
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        Run
        
        ::
        
        $ uncompyle6 *compiled-python-file-pyc-or-pyo*
        
        For usage help:
        
        ::
        
           $ uncompyle6 -h
        
        If you want strong verification of the correctness of the
        decompilation process, add the `--verify` option. But there are
        situations where this will indicate a failure, although the generated
        program is semantically equivalent. Using option `--weak-verify` will
        tell you if there is something definitely wrong. Generally, large
        swaths of code are decompiled correctly, if not the entire program.
        
        You can also cross compare the results with pycdc_ . Since they work
        differently, bugs here often aren't in that, and vice versa.
        
        
        Known Bugs/Restrictions
        -----------------------
        
        The biggest known and possibly fixable (but hard) problem has to do
        with handling control flow. All of the Python decompilers I have looked
        at have the same problem. In some cases we can detect an erroneous
        decompilation and report that.
        
        Over 98% of the decompilation of Python standard library packages in
        Python 2.7.12 verifies correctly. Over 99% of Python 2.7 and 3.3-3.5
        "weakly" verify. Python 2.6 drops down to 96% weakly verifying.
        Other versions drop off in quality too.
        
        *Verification* is the process of decompiling bytecode, compiling with
        a Python for that bytecode version, and then comparing the bytecode
        produced by the decompiled/compiled program. Some allowance is made
        for inessential differences. But other semantically equivalent
        differences are not caught. For example ``1 and 0`` is decompiled to
        the equivalent ``0``; remnants of the first true evaluation (1) is
        lost when Python compiles this. When Python next compiles ``0`` the
        resulting code is simpler.
        
        *Weak Verification*
        on the other hand doesn't check bytecode for equivalence but does
        check to see if the resulting decompiled source is a valid Python
        program by running the Python interpreter. Because the Python language
        has changed so much, for best results you should use the same Python
        Version in checking as used in the bytecode.
        
        Later distributions average about 200 files. There is some work to do
        on the lower end Python versions which is more difficult for us to
        handle since we don't have a Python interpreter for versions 1.5, 1.6,
        and 2.0.
        
        In the Python 3 series, Python support is is strongest around 3.4 or
        3.3 and drops off as you move further away from those versions. Python
        3.6 changes things drastically by using word codes rather than byte
        codes. That has been addressed, but then it also changes function call
        opcodes and its semantics and has more problems with control flow than
        3.5 has.
        
        Currently not all Python magic numbers are supported. Specifically in
        some versions of Python, notably Python 3.6, the magic number has
        changes several times within a version. We support only the released
        magic. There are also customized Python interpreters, notably Dropbox,
        which use their own magic and encrypt bytcode. With the exception of
        the Dropbox's old Python 2.5 interpreter this kind of thing is not
        handled.
        
        We also don't handle PJOrion_ obfuscated code. For that try: PJOrion
        Deobfuscator_ to unscramble the bytecode to get valid bytecode before
        trying this tool.
        
        Handling pathologically long lists of expressions or statements is
        slow.
        
        
        There is lots to do, so please dig in and help.
