+	    - [Python] Add the '-cpluscast' option to enable the 'new'
+	      C++ casting operators, such as 'static_cast', inside the
+	      typemaps. By default swig use the old C cast style, even
+	      when parsing C++.
+	      
+	    - [Python] Add the '-new_vwm' option to enable the new
+              SwigValueWrapper mode. Now this is mainly for testing
+              that the typemaps are really safe for any future
+              solution, but you can use it if you have a very strange
+              error with default cosntructors missing + %apply +
+              %typemap, and if everything else fails (see
+              valuwrapper_opaque.i for alternative and current
+              solutions). If you are a user that don't know what is
+              SwigValueWrapper, don't even try it.
+
+	    - [Python] Add the '-noh' option to be used with directors
+	      and when you prefer to disable the generation of the
+	      director header file. If not used, swig will work as
+	      usual generating both the wrap.cxx and wrap.h files. If
+	      you use it, swig will only generate wrap.cxx.

 	      the runtime types will be stored in the given type table name.
