>>> from mwlib import uparser
>>> uparser.simpleparse("* hello\n* world")
parser.info >> Parsing "'unknown'"
 Article 'unknown': 1 children
     Paragraph '': 1 children
         Node '': 1 children
             ItemList '': 2 children
                 Item '': 1 children
                     ' hello'
                 Item '': 1 children
                     ' world'
Article 'unknown': 1 children

Have a look at the source for advanced usage...

You are using the development version. You need to install re2c and run make.
Or you can use the source tarball on pypi by running easy_install mwlib.
