1. Introduction						    *nvim-python-intro*

Through an external python interpreter connected via |msgpack-rpc|, Nvim
offers some support for the legacy |python-vim| interface. For now only the
old Vim 7.3 API is supported.

2. Quickstart					       *nvim-python-quickstart*

If you just want to start using Vim python plugins with Nvim quickly, here's a
simple tutorial:

- Make sure python 2.6 or 2.7 is available in your `$PATH`
- Install the `neovim` python package:
  >
      $ pip install neovim
<
Most python plugins created for Vim 7.3 should work after these steps.
