Do you want to run inspect using this python script or do you want a full implementation of inspect in python?

We can start with the license checks. And eventually add more inspect functionality if needed. But the goal is not to run the inspect program itself preferring to "port" the functionality over.

Great, I would like to give it a shot. I am a senior Python developer. Just running `python status/boost_check_library.py` locally gives an error instead of a helpful usage message. I will work on improving that as well. Best regards, Hans
