My intention was to start working on a SWIG interface file, and since
Moazzam is asking for a wrapper, I might be able to get his help with
testing...etc. Now after looking through some of the materials at
swig.org, I think it is more tailored for wrapper developers to create
customized interface files rather than us creating one for the
library. Therefore I think someone developing the wrapper is more
suitable for this task than I am.

I'm not sure if Moazzam is interested on working with SWIG, but I'd be
happy to include a SWIG interface file as a useable example for others
to use.
