+Translate from PEP8 Python style to Mininet (i.e. Arista-like)
+Python style
+
+usage: unpep8 < old.py > new.py
+
+- Reinstates CapWords for methods and instance variables
+- Gets rid of triple single quotes
+- Eliminates triple quotes on single lines
+- Inserts extra spaces to improve readability
+- Fixes Doxygen (or doxypy) ugliness
+
+Does the following translations:
+
+ClassName.method_name(foo = bar) -> ClassName.methodName( foo=bar )
+
+Triple-single-quotes -> triple-double-quotes
+
+@param foo description -> foo: description
+@return description    -> returns: description
+@author me             -> author: me
+@todo(me)              -> TODO(me)
+
+Bugs/Limitations:
+
+- Hack to restore strings is ugly
+- Multiline strings get mangled
+- Comments are mangled (which is arguably the "right thing" to do, except
+  that, for example, the left hand sides of the above would get translated!)
+- Doesn't eliminate unnecessary backslashes
+- Has no opinion on tab size
+- complicated indented docstrings get flattened
+- We don't (yet) have a filter to generate Doxygen/Doxypy
+- Currently leaves indents on blank comment lines
+- May lead to namespace collisions (e.g. some_thing and someThing)
