tp_richcompare

[Sreeram Kandallu]

I'm writing an extension type, for which i'd like to implement only ==
and !=, but not the other comparison operators like <,<=,>,>=.
What is the right way to do this?
I currently have a tp_richcompare function, which handles Py_EQ, and
Py_NE, but raises a TypeError for the other operations. Is this the
'right' way?

Yes. This is exactly what the builtin complex type does.
