Re: Jython Question

Disclaimer - not an expert.

My understanding is that everything is written in Java - the top level
of the process that brings it into something executable by Java is the
parser that identifies the Jython keywords in the scripts:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_syntax_tree (Wikipedia article
for parsing with an abstract syntax tree)

The source code for Jython is readily available, but it sounds like
you wanted a broad understanding or way to jump into the topic.  Sorry
if I have assumed too little knowledge on your part.
