Hello,
Regarding how the table memory gets freed, this is automatically done by
the bindings when Python exits. The bindings use the atexit module of
Python to register the lou_free function to be called on exit.
Thanks to the Python approach of treating developers as adults, it is
possible to call the lou_free function yourself:
import louis
louis.liblouis.lou_free()
I would recommend against doing that though. As said lou_free is called
automatically on exit. If you need to free the table memory at some
other point I guess you could use the above, although using the liblouis
object is probably seen as dealing with implementation details rather
than the API. It might be preferrable to request the addition of a
function in the bindings API to avoid this direct accessing of
implementation details.

The Python formatter that I mentioned a few weeks ago is attached. It has a doc
string that explains its usage.
One thing I'm wondering about is what happens to the memory used by the
liblouis table when the program ends. I don't see how to clear it.
