RPyC_ (pronounced like *are-pie-see*), or *Remote Python Call*, is a
**transparent** library for **symmetrical** `remote procedure calls`_,
clustering_, and distributed-computing_.  RPyC makes use of object-proxying_,
a technique that employs python's dynamic nature, to overcome the physical
boundaries between processes and computers, so that remote objects can be
manipulated as if they were local.

   Note that text written to the server's ``stdout`` is actually printed on
   the server's console.
