why would having access to a type object for exit/quit help you do proper syntax coloring, btw? if you want to generate a syntax table, wouldn't it be better to use things like issubclass(obj, Exception) and callable(obj) etc. ? (__builtins__ is an implementation detail, btw; if you want a list of the builtins, import __builtin__ (no plural) and do dir on that). </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
