NRPy+
=====

Zach has been reworking the way NRPy+ can be used, making it possible
to use. 

Called NRPy-inline, can contain NRPy+ code in C++ code in between
MRPYSTART/NRPYEND tags which nrpy+ can then expand. Useful to eg handle
tensorial expressions.

Steve brought up possible ways of nicely interacting this with a make
based build system. Zach has been exploring 

Currently only available in NRPy+ git repository, using pip install
from there, documentation is very sparse right now
