Mk4py is the Python interface to Metakit. It can be built either as dynamic extension for use with any standard Python 1.5 installation, or linked into an application statically.
The Mk4py homepage is at:

See also the How to get started with Mk4py and Mk4tcl page.
See the page Building Mk4py 2.01 on Unix if you're having trouble building from source with that combination.
