+
 * :func:`ctypes.memoryview_at` now exists to create a
   :class:`memoryview` object that refers to the supplied pointer and
   length. Works just like :func:`ctypes.string_at` except it avoids a
   buffer copy. Useful when implementing callback functions in Python
   that are passed dynamically-sized buffers.
