unixreg

why

While working on porting a python application to Linux I came across many uses of winreg that could not easily be ported over.

Instead of reworking the system I decided to implement a bandaid solution that deals with it transparently.

how to use

Update your winreg imports with this

try:
    import winreg
except ImportError:
    import unixreg as winreg

simply importing unixreg should be enough though, winreg is imported if found
