-Don't confuse these classes with :mod:`parsing_representation` modules, the

-``Module`` exists mainly for caching purposes.
-
-Basically :mod:`modules` offers the classes:
-
-- ``CachedModule``, a base class for Cachedmodule.
-- ``Module`` the class for all normal Python modules (not builtins, they are at
-  home at :mod:`builtin`).
-- ``ModuleWithCursor``, holds the module information for :class:`api.Script`.
-
-Apart from those classes there's a ``sys.path`` fetching function, as well as
