This doesn't work in Python since Python has multiple inheritence, e.g. super in class A(B,C): def foo(self): super.foo() is ambiguous. I'd rather suggest adding a function for finding the basemethod of a method. This is probably the most common task in this context. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg ______________________________________________________________________ Company & Consulting: http://www.egenix.com/ Python Software: http://www.lemburg.com/python/
