this is basically what i was trying to do. i just tried it again, with a class_defs.py file in a folder i appended to the system path, itself containing the class definition for File. then: from class_defs import File works fine. nice to know i was on the right lines. thanks for the pointer! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
