Description-en: Python encoding library similar to bittorrent's bencode
For complex, heterogeneous data structures with many small elements,
r-encodings take significantly less space than b-encodings.
This version of rencode is a complete rewrite in Cython in order to
increase performance over the pure Python module written by Petru Paler,
Connelly Barnes et al.
