        .. Start of user-guide
        
        The ``asttokens`` module annotates Python abstract syntax trees (ASTs) with the positions of tokens
        and text in the source code that generated them.
        
        It makes it possible for tools that work with logical AST nodes to find the particular text that
        resulted in those nodes, for example for automated refactoring or highlighting.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        asttokens is available on PyPI: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/asttokens/::
        
            pip install asttokens
        
        The code is on GitHub: https://github.com/gristlabs/asttokens.
        
        The API Reference is here: http://asttokens.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api-index.html.
        
        Usage
        -----
        ASTTokens works with both Python2 and Python3.
        
        ASTTokens can annotate both trees built by `ast <https://docs.python.org/2/library/ast.html>`_,
        AND those built by `astroid <https://www.astroid.org/>`_.
        
        Here's an example:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import asttokens, ast
            source = "Robot('blue').walk(steps=10*n)"
            atok = asttokens.ASTTokens(source, parse=True)
        
        Once the tree has been marked, nodes get ``.first_token``, ``.last_token`` attributes, and
        the ``ASTTokens`` object offers helpful methods:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            attr_node = next(n for n in ast.walk(atok.tree) if isinstance(n, ast.Attribute))
            print(atok.get_text(attr_node))
            start, end = attr_node.last_token.startpos, attr_node.last_token.endpos
            print(atok.text[:start] + 'RUN' + atok.text[end:])
        
        Which produces this output:
        
        .. code-block:: text
        
            Robot('blue').walk
            Robot('blue').RUN(steps=10*n)
        
        The ``ASTTokens`` object also offers methods to walk and search the list of tokens that make up
        the code (or a particular AST node), which is more useful and powerful than dealing with the text
        directly.
