  Description     : unified API for parsing NZB files from NNTP (Usenet) servers

 pynzb is a unified API for parsing NZB files, with several concrete
 implementations included.
 .
 NZB is an XML-based file format for retrieving posts from NNTP (Usenet)
 servers.  Since NZB is XML-based, it's relatively easy to build one-off
 parsers to parse NZB files.  This project is an attempt to consolidate those
 many one-off NZB parsers into one simple interface.
 .
 This package includes three implementations: one based on expat, another based
 on ElementTree, and a final implementation based on lxml.  The order in which
 they were listed is in order of compatibility.  The expat version should work on
 all versions of Python > 2.0, the lxml one will work on all versions > 2.5, and
 lxml will only work if you have lxml installed.
 .
 Simply import nzb_parser from the pynzb package.  It's an instantiated
 version of the fastest available parser that your system can support.
