+Compile the string \var{source}, a Python module, statement or
+expression, into a code object that can be executed by the exec
+statement or \function{eval()}. This function is a replacement for the
+built-in \function{compile()} function.
+
+The \var{filename} will be used for run-time error messages.
+
+The \var{mode} must be 'exec' to compile a module, 'single' to compile a
+single (interactive) statement, or 'eval' to compile an expression.
+
+The \var{flags} and \var{dont_inherit} arguments affect future-related
+statements, but are not supported yet.
